33 Dec 23 Comment What a moment in time to capture and to capture it well. I could see a club judge use the foliage bottom left as an accuse to pass by. But a fabulous image. Right place right time. Dec 11th
33 Dec 23 Comment You think of the bravery of the people that erected this bridge, quite an amazing structure. The line t=of the bridge is great and the detail is there but I am wondering if for once, (I cannot believe I am going to say this) it could be better in colour. You lose the higher structure of the image and the two sides don't quite come across as tree trunks. This is a great image but I would like to see the colour version. Dec 11th
33 Dec 23 Comment Please don't take this the wrong way, but you saw this and went wow and snapped the image, where it need a bit more thought, you have a powerful medium in the image which is the water and it leads through to that dead tree in the middle, finding the best line and angle for the image to get the colour and the shape, the reflection that is in the water and that dead branch/tree in the middle of all this joy. You light balance would be the green grass as that is the good medium. But I do agree the colours are wonderful and will put a smile on your face when you look at it. Dec 11th
33 Dec 23 Comment This is not a small image shot, this needs to be viewed as large as you can to allow your eyes to flow over it to that light, then the delicate colours come out and the spots of red leaves and the flow of the water all lead you to the pool and the gap and the way out, I do think there is more you can do tonally with some luminosity masks, but large this is a strong image. Dec 11th
33 Dec 23 Comment The strength of the arch, have seen images of this bridge and gorge before and am always amazed that it is still standing with some of the earthquakes they have had in Greece. It does put some of the modern building methods to shame when this anchient bridge has lasted so long. Great image for your memories of a great trip. A breathtaking place to see. Dec 11th
33 Dec 23 Comment This is a wonderful place and I would have had a great time taking images here, the flow of the river over the rock is lovely and the colours are great, but sometimes the landscape needs some help from us the photographer, the weather can be grey and flat and you are presented with the perfect scene but there is nothing you can do. With a bit of work in PS you can lift the image, I have had a gentle play but only gentle as I have a low res, with a raw there is so much more, also this is so much stronger flipped with a touch of smart sharpening. Wonderful place to revisit through the year. Dec 11th

39 Dec 23 Comment This is what dreams are made of, being in places like this. Stick the camera on a tripod and point and shot. What a shot and what a great image to convert, toned blue sky then lit mountains, dark water with small boats for scale and perfect reflection. Tick, Tick, Tick,. Done Done. Here is a gong.

Am I jealous?		 Dec 11th
39 Dec 23 Comment He is magnificent and fills the frame well, the pose and angle is head is spot on and the shape he makes is great. Did you burst and get him liking? It is a shame you don't have the rear end and but that mane makes up for it. Looks like he has just be to the stylus. Love it. Dec 11th
39 Dec 23 Comment Well you conversion is a triumph, the Church stands out and is standing proud in the scenery. That sky is set to the right level and you have removed all the bits that were annoying. Great conversion and great looking church. Dec 11th
39 Dec 23 Comment Not sure this one works, thinks the camera has struggled with the small details and the highlights are blown for me. Sorry.
I know Bar Humbug.		 Dec 11th
39 Dec 23 Comment The black and white image is wonderful and she looks proud and fantastic. I would have loved to photographed her and am very jealous. Thanks for sharing. Dec 11th
39 Dec 23 Comment This is a good straight forward portrait of a nice lady with a good smile and flippy her is a great idea, I bet she never noticed. Lazy eye, that is why the great models get paid. the big bucks, most of them either don't have one or is not that noticeable. That is why you see a lot of portrait shots side or angled to counteract the lazy eye. Yes you could have done so much more with lights but it was not that type of shoot or model. Processing is great and I think the face is trong enough to carry the clothing. Nice work. Dec 11th
