1 Jan 19 Comment The couple is your main subject. I agree with the comments about the person on the right and the distracting background. Another camera might have been able to put the background out of focus at f/4.0. My Lumix also seems to keep too much in focus even when it is wide open. Jan 22nd
1 Jan 19 Comment I agree about the windows across the top but I would also like to try to tone down the window on the right. Since everyone else is playing around with this, let me through my changes into the pot too. Besides cropping, I did a little tweaking to straighten it and a little burning to the upper right corner. Jan 22nd
1 Jan 19 Comment I think it work very well. You can just see the anger. I can take or leave the cage. You definitely need showing the food to tell the story. Could it be a little over sharpened? I don't mind that here but it might not look natural enough for a Nature shot. Jan 22nd
1 Jan 19 Comment This is almost a monochrome in blue tones. I like the way that the cloud bank at the bottom frames the mountain and also follows the slope of the mountain across the image.

I was curious about what Luminar 3 would do the sky. I tried the AI Sky Enhancer and it didn't really do much of anything with it. The clouds were just too heavy.		 Jan 22nd
1 Jan 19 Comment I saw Helicon Focus a few years ago and thought that was something I would like to try but I have never gotten it. It did an excellent job with this except for a little piece under the stamens in the throat of the flower. Could this have been from the dodging and burning?

I would like to see the whole petal at the top. 		Jan 22nd
1 Jan 19 Reply I see more that I could have done with it but it is time to move on to something else.

AI Gigapixel is a Topaz filter. I image it could be similar to Perfect Resize. I don't know anything about that one. I think it's amazing what it can do with even a thumbnail.		 Jan 11th
1 Jan 19 Reply I have tried some but not near as bad as this one. It looked like the whole emulsion had slipped on the crack across the eye. That eye was a duplicate of the other one.
