64 Jan 21 Reply I have for nearly 10 years used Lightroom exclusively for final presentation even after work in PS, Skylum, ON1, HDR Programs, Focus Stacking Software, Artistic software, etc. So I just use the export tool to change length and width, megabite size, pixel count and sharpness at export. I frankly get befuddled to try to export in PS, ON1, etc. so I always export back into Lightroom or after the fact as a new file. I really don't have any other suggestions, except to concur that sometimes something that you expect to happen doesn't and that is frustrating. Jan 9th
64 Jan 21 Comment Thanks for the thoughts. With those in mind, I offer an alternative crop. Jan 9th
64 Jan 21 Comment Jerry, I, too, agree that more depth of field would have make everything sharper in the image. Personally I like the interplay of lines and contrasts within the image of different building and like the tonal variation (black to white). I actually like the image the more I look at. I would would like to see everything sharper. Jan 9th
64 Jan 21 Comment Stuart, I too think the image could be better in several ways as already mentioned. What gets my attention first when I saw it was the two ducks being not sharp or not in focus and then I saw the one in the background and it was distracting. I am not sure there is a way to enhance this except with a re-capture of something like this.
I know what you say about odds and even in an image, but what is far more important is a clear and sharp subject(s) that keeps our eye centered and interested.		 Jan 9th
64 Jan 21 Comment Very interesting image, Helen. I like the simplicity of it and the tonal variations. I think both Stuart and Stan have worthy thoughts. I sure like your creativity. Jan 9th
64 Jan 21 Comment Stan, I like the image a lot. It has great depth of field, wonderful luminosity as well as tonal range. Compositionally it works except that I wish the left frame that cuts through the tip of one of the ornamental sculpted roof elements was fully visible. Jan 9th
64 Jan 21 Comment Jerry, I find the discussion interesting, but unfortunately this abstract doesn't resonate for me strongly. I have no suggestions, but do see that Stan may have zeroed in on some ideas that might help make the image more interesting. Jan 9th
64 Jan 21 Comment The image is wonderful as it is with very nice transition of tones, interesting shapes and line interplaying with one another. I think the only possible enhance from my perspective is to open up the shadows a little on the building on the right. Jan 9th
