1 Jan 19 Comment There is a great reality to this scene which has a disturbing element to it. I wish the background were less busy and did not compete for attention so much with the people. Darkening, blurring, perhaps even converting to B&W,would be helpful.Here's what I mean although I think letting in a little of color in back would be even better. Jan 11th
1 Jan 19 Comment It's a bold move to show that amount of sky. There may be enough detail in those clouds to have some fun with paining in some color, like an orange.That would work well in the area just over the mountain.If you can play with different Blend Modes in Photoshop the painting can be very subtle and interesting. Jan 11th
1 Jan 19 Comment I like this type of image and find the shadows to be very interesting. Cropping the light area on top and the window on the right could help simplify what initially looks like a confusing photo.The diagonal lines of the ladder and its shadow add a lot. Jan 11th
1 Jan 19 Comment Nice how you cropped this, Joey. Great detail in Shasta. Having the fog at the bottom makes it a bit unusual. Jan 11th
1 Jan 19 Comment Having that kind of depth of field is very unusual. It shows the power of Helicon Focus. The highlights don't bother me at all probably because the are so sharp.I wish the petals off to the right were blurry like the background. Jan 11th
1 Jan 19 Comment Boy, you put some time and effort into that image. Retouching is labor intensive! I don't know about AI Gigapixel so thanks for that. I assume it's an upsizing program? I have one called Perfect Resize and it has been very useful on occasion. Jan 11th
1 Jan 19 Reply I agree with you about showing the bottom of the cage. Actually, in the image I was uploading I think showed the bottom but it got clipped along the way. Hmm... Jan 8th

51 Jan 19 Comment The lovely warm browns contrast well with the frost and wintery feel of the image. The shapes add interest as well.It's not evident to me at first that they are leaves but it doesn't matter. Jan 11th
51 Jan 19 Comment I see the two images not so much as a collage but more like a triptych but with two images instead of three.A duotych maybe? The images work well together. Jan 11th
51 Jan 19 Comment Great mood and that path calls out to me.It would be nice to have a walk there now.The bottom half is warm and the top cool. How are you controlling that or did it just work out that way? Jan 11th
51 Jan 19 Comment Great colors and the reflection is lovely. I wish/wonder if there is a way to make the Painteresque effect look more behind the trees and not so much on the trees themselves. There are some settings or options in that program that allow for controlling the effect. Jan 11th
51 Jan 19 Comment Fine positioning of the trees and leaving the open space to the right as a balance. The B&W works well. I like it. Jan 11th
51 Jan 19 Comment Really nice sun rays. Kind of a simple structure of trees and snow which lends a nice mood and conveys a story. Jan 11th
