33 Mar 24 Comment Your choice of black and white is a very good one, the towers are very interesting, as being someone not from the USA, you don't realise that they still use water towers so much in city's. I am not a fan of two things, the slight cropping of the two outside towers, I would have liked to see more. The Vignette was not needed as it pushes the eye to the white building in the centre and away from the main subject which is the towers. Mar 18th
33 Mar 24 Comment The tide lines do give some nice lead lines and the people do add some good scale, shame they are doing something interesting. The rest of the image is very nice with lovely sky's and I love how the trees lean towards the ocean. Mar 18th
33 Mar 24 Comment This is a beautiful landscape made up by those love wisps of smoke and that touch of mist running by that tree in the foreground, then the clouds over the hills. Then the light hits you. You can sit here with a cup of coffee and lose yourself in this one. But first you need to do one thing. See my version. Mar 18th
33 Mar 24 Comment This is one for your top class folder, there is nothing to say but marvelous. You could not have done this better.
Over here in England the the main tree for doing this type of photo, the Sycamore on Hadrian's Wall was chopped down by a bunch of hooligans one night. Senseless vandalisms. The national trust is trying to grow it back but not in our life time.

33 Mar 24 Comment My type of image and a good travel image. Good colour and good detail, but I look at this and do think you have missed a trick here. The image is those wonderful old shutters and the alleyway the inclusion in the bags just draws the eye. You would have also lost the air-conditioning outlet. The image will make a fond memory of a great day. Must admit, this is what the right hand is for now when we head out, the camera is always strapped to it. You never know what you will find or what opportunity will arise. Just know the law of where you walk. Mar 18th
33 Mar 24 Comment The tree sits well in the frame and you have a lovely cloud base as a background. The grasses popping above the water gives you a nice base to work with. But the lighting on this dull day is not helping you for a good colour image, but it is helping for a strong monochrome one in my opinion. Mar 18th

39 Mar 24 Reply For me no. I got an instant feel of old age and that was very powerful. Mar 19th
39 Mar 24 Reply With Generative Fill you can put in the same instructions in and it will always produce a different image. It is a random image generator from instruction. If it produced the same image from the same base instruction there would be to many similar images. At Adobe last report on discord it was producing on average a million images a day, so somewhere people are going to put in very similar information.
Anyway I thought we were band from using or even talking about GI.

39 Mar 24 Comment The conversion on the model is very good, those eyes are exceptional and stand out, the lighting across is nice a sutle and give a strong depth. Agree you do need a keyline, specially if you are going to use this in digital comps. I would also smooth out the background, it looks a touch brittle. Lovely image that just needs a touch up to make it Great. Mar 18th
39 Mar 24 Comment Oh my he or she is wonderful, those eyes are so well captured, looking at the colour the monochrome brings out the detail and makes it stand out proud. Great image. Mar 18th
39 Mar 24 Comment That powerful point and triangle type shape is so dramatic it holds the rest of the image together. The two people in the gap is perfect as they add so much scale. The light shapes on the floor work as a strong opposite to the dark roof. Strong street image. Mar 18th
39 Mar 24 Comment That bird could not have been placed better in the frame and the timing is just ring. Very pleasing image. Mar 18th
39 Mar 24 Comment I have a very similar image that has done me proud on the competition circuit. It just pulls at the heart strings, you don't need to see any more than this to tell you the rest of the story. Fabulous and moving all at the same time. Mar 18th
39 Mar 24 Comment ????? What AI. I as well do not understand what AI you used. If you are saying using Silver Efex is AI. Then all digital images is AI.
AI is the manipulation of images by relacing it with made up information from computer genorrated. i.e. Generative Fill
As for the image, but the eye is being drawn by that dead sky which is a shame as there some nice detail in the catus and wall. Just an idea for an alternative.
