Hi Michael - when revisiting my comment I realized that I picked a wrong photo for the upload :-( But very happy to see that you perfectly captured my intent :-) |

Hi Michael, At work I occasionally use the proverbe "if your only tool is a hammer, everything looks like a nail" to encourage opening thinking out of the box.
Unfortunately the proverbe applies to me pretty well, when it comes to photography. After 25 years doing square photos I changed this year to the XPAN format (24x65), which I find very inspring not only for new photos but also for reworking old ones.
Hence I felt tempted to crop your picture - which I liked a lot otherwise - to the panorama format. Not sure what you think of it?

Hi Chris - this is a very beautiful picture: Immogen Cummingham would be proud of this :-) Nothing to add from my side, apart from the comment that your efforts paid well off. |

Wow Chris, this is gorgeous. Whilst I am a keen user of AI in my daily work, I have not done so far in my photography. But your rework definitiely is a substantial improvement to the original and encourages me to try it. Brilliantly done! |

Hi Mark - I can only echo the others, that is a great shot and the viewer get a great impression of the atmosphere, which you captured very well. I agree that the picture might benefit of a recropping. Find my below my attempt, in which I removed the photographer, which seemed to me personally the less essential element. |

Hi Emil - the picture conveys perfectly the sterile backyard atmosphere that you wanted to capture. I like the bw conversion.
In my own similar photos, I have however mixed emotions, when it comes to straightening the lines in LR and I do it only when the deviation is minimal. In a perspective like your picture I probably would leave it, as it rather irritates me (eg that the windows seem larger on top than on bottom). But thats personal taste. |

Pete - a really great picture and I am lucky you are not taller as I consider the grass in the foreground the icing on the cake ;-)
The pictures touches my heart and reminds of a song we sung as children in the boy scouts of the local church "Das alte Haus von Rocky Docky" (original from Stuart Hamblen, "This Ole House", 1954).
Great picture well implemented!

Hi Pete: many thanks, I like the look of the fruits and will darken them. I would however lighten up the hat to direct the eye to it (as per my intention in the description). Many thanks |
