15 Feb 18 Reply Carmen, Now that you point it out, I can just make it out. Maybe make it a little brighter?

15 Feb 18 Comment Although it is someone else's artwork, you have made it your own. I does seem very lifelike, particularly the eyes. Filling the frame the way you did was very creative. The background doesn't bother me at all. It gives it a sense of environment. Good idea, Rick. Feb 24th
15 Feb 18 Comment Your final outcome is excellent. I love the Flood filter, as well. You took a mundane flower photo and transformed it into something that is beautiful to look at. The only very small question I have is would it make it better with a stem curving out of the back of the columbine? That is really just a nit-pick.
Great work!

15 Feb 18 Comment Really good idea. You could, of course, have cheated and put the moon in as a separate layer so you could place it exactly. Anyway, great juxtaposition. The cranes make a strong graphic composition. So nice that they were red. The light is just about right, as well.
It's always a good thought to learn to extend your use of your camera, in this instance in learning how to use the multiple exposure. I think you did an outstanding job getting the moon and cable to line up as you may have had to have guessed its exact location.

15 Feb 18 Comment I didn't even notice that there were two of them until the others pointed it out. It would not be too difficult to remove the woman in the back with the clone tool. However, that would get rid of the umbrella which is a key element.
Otherwise, I love it. The wall is very strong and has interest. The People are placed in the right position. Great idea!

15 Feb 18 Comment A very striking image! The simplicity of the single figure and the great leading lines from the boat bring out eyes right to the center of interest. The diagonal pole also adds some tension here. You were lucky that the clouds were behind him making him stand out a lot more than would have been the case with the blue sky alone. Although he is centered, it works well because the symmetry of the boat cries to be centered and the man is bowing his head to one side which also subtracts from any static appearance. Feb 14th

21 Feb 18 Comment John,
Your idea is a good one. I have never used Painter although I purchased it at least twice. The "painting" you came up with is maybe a little too extreme for my taste; maybe you should have cut it back to 50%. Another suggestion is to remove a lot of the foreground, which is pretty much dead space.
Good thinking, however, to change a record shot to something much more interesting.

21 Feb 18 Comment Barrie,
This works pretty well as a result of the twirl filter. I tend to agree that limiting the image to the middle and cropping out the outside trees might make it stronger as a creative image. Good thinking to pick something like the sand dunes to work with. I've always admired the dead trees at Mammoth Springs as well.

21 Feb 18 Comment Brian,
I vaguely remember when you first joined the group that you had a series of images that were quite intriguing. This may or may not have been one of them. I think it is extremely creative, deserving a title of its own like Iconic Breakthrough. The strength of the hand reaching out against the background of what looks like family photos is brilliant. I'm glad you were able to create its own doorway to separate it from the photos, although maybe breaking through the photos with ragged edges might have also been very interesting. The red of the sleeve doesn't annoy me at all.
