26 Jan 24 Comment Question: What were they smoking at the party? (Just kidding!) I'm not a fan of photo alterations, but it worked well in this case. The original has some appeal, mainly because of the fog and lights, but it looks static. Your post-processing distorted the elements at the bottom just enough to make them interesting, but not so much as to make them unrecognizable. The top half makes me think of an aurora borealis, although I know that they are mostly green. (Maybe I'm wrong, you know more about it.) Not sure that I would hang something like this on my wall, but it was a good pastime. Jan 7th
26 Jan 24 Comment A very calm image. The path brings the viewer from the foreground to the background in a meandering line. The color of the water is beautiful, with nice reflections of the trees. What upsets me a little are the two round dark spots on the foreground tree. They look like eyes staring at me. What about cloning them out? Jan 7th
26 Jan 24 Comment My attention goes immediately to the young lady in the middle, interacting with the older woman. (I don't think that she noticed you.) It is an interesting group, which produced a geometrical figure. I don't think that AI did a good job with the missing shoe. Even without your explanation, I would have noticed that it doesn't match the left shoe (shape and stitching). I don't see how you can solve the problem. If possible, I would give a little more space over the head of the last woman. Jan 7th
26 Jan 24 Comment Perfect placement of the female figure. Did you ask her to pose, or did you just find the right spot? I like the colors and the texture on the water. The clouds at the top frame the image very well. I'm not sure whether the photo needs some cropping. There is dark, negative space at the bottom, but cropping there would bring the horizon into the middle. Having said that the clouds frame the image very well, I wouldn't cut there. Or maybe just a tad of the dark parts, bringing the horizon a little higher? Jan 7th
26 Jan 24 Comment Nice interaction between the customer and the vendor, even if they are not looking at each other. The fire and the smoke tell the story, and I can smell the grilled meat. Good decision to clone out the woman. As others have suggested, you can also eliminate the white bag. If you crop from the right, you will be left with just a small white spot that would be very easy to clone. With cropping, you also get rid of the light triangle formed by the chair and the tent. You can also crop something from the left, to eliminate the half figure and the bright triangle. Speaking of cloning out, what about the top of the people sitting on the chair? And the person whose legs show below the vendor's cap? See attached my quick and dirty fixing. Jan 7th
26 Jan 24 Comment My first impression was of a photo of a fish. I could even see its eye and its open mouth at the bottom left. It's intriguing the many shapes that nature takes. I like your composition, running diagonally from top right to bottom left. The colors are attractive and the main subject very sharp. The blurring of the background helped to concentrate the attention on the leaf. I don't see anything to change. Jan 7th
26 Jan 24 Reply It is a straight shot. Only post-processing was the blue filter for the sky. Jan 4th
