81 Mar 24 Comment Very beautiful image! And I love the black background and the stroke around the edge that matches the primary color in the flower! Well done! Mar 10th
81 Mar 24 Comment I love this image, and definitely prefer the color version. Those beautiful colors in the mask are such a treat! I do think the lights and pen removed would be better for my tastes, but I love the color version just as it is too! I spent a year in Thailand in the early 70's - many happy memories from there!

81 Mar 24 Comment Sorry. Forgot to attach image with my comment. Mar 10th
81 Mar 24 Comment Interesting subject, focus and lighting. Since you mentioned cropping, I would have cropped it down to eliminate that ceiling and those chairs/stools on the right. Is that a curved ceiling? Seemed like your horizon was off but I think the ceiling was making me feel that way. Nice image overall! Mar 10th

81 Mar 24 Comment Nice shot Kurt. Agree with the edits that Angela posted, especially the removal of the nails! Nice when you can get a cooperative wildlife subject, if only the gull had turned it's body so you weren't seeing the shaded side! LOL.

81 Mar 24 Reply Topaz Photo AI has a 30 day trial, I think. I have found it very useful for sharpening, noise reduction and upscaling images. Mar 2nd
81 Mar 24 Comment Yes, a very nice edit! It's always great when you can get them looking straight at you. Mar 2nd
81 Mar 24 Comment I love macro photography for the ability to show details that are not normally available without the aid of magnification! This is an awesome image and I appreciate your explaination of the techniques used to create and capture the Gerbera reflections! While I was very impressed with the number of reflections you achieved on the wire, I really wanted to see a closer up view. So per my own preferences, I imported the image into Topaz Photo AI to upscale and sharpen the results to facilitate a close in crop. Then I imported the image into LightRoom Classic to achive the desired crop, then used the masking tool to select the backgroun where I adjust the shadows down, highlights up, and increased the saturation way up. Great job on this interesting image and sharing your techniques with the group! Mar 1st
81 Mar 24 Reply Thank you Angela for you feedback! I agree the black background looks really good, and I like that you brighten up the feather! Mar 1st
