18 Sep 19 Comment That's interesting Tom, looks more like a wave on a beach. Sep 25th
18 Sep 19 Comment Yes this is creepy! Sep 25th
18 Sep 19 Comment I take your point but the colours here are all false and a bit "in your face" so I think the rather unnatural blue is OK. Sep 21st
18 Sep 19 Comment Another nice idea! Perhaps slightly lighten the shadow area of the letters and darken the sunset? Sep 15th
18 Sep 19 Comment Agree, ideal for a greeting card, perhaps with a lighter background as Mike suggests. Sep 15th
18 Sep 19 Comment Unusual treatment which is fine for the subject. Not much I can add. Sep 15th
18 Sep 19 Comment Nice. Sep 15th
18 Sep 19 Comment I very much like the effect but think it would work better using a different mountain range without the "rock" in the foreground, and possibly also a more conventional looking sky. As it is, it is difficult to see what the image actually is. Of course, I appreciate that might be your intention! Sep 15th
18 Sep 19 Reply You can view them alphabetically (a-z) and it's number 10 of about 16, I think. Sep 14th
18 Sep 19 Comment The original Hockey included a puddle of water but sadly we haven't had any rain. Sep 2nd

23 Sep 19 Comment I think its a neat idea which works well. I like the way in which the central couple are in a different pose to all the others. My only negative comment (and it might be because my eyes are going!) is the margins of the images don't quite seem to line up and I wonder if it would be better to have actual lines (like a window) a few pixels wide in between all of them. Just a thought. Andrew (Groups 18 & 40). Sep 6th

40 Sep 19 Comment Leaving much of the original reflection in is an interesting alternative. Sep 18th
40 Sep 19 Comment Thanks; I think the original paler look would be equally acceptable but this was the effect I was actually aiming for. Sep 18th
40 Sep 19 Comment Nice idea. It does look like a staged setup in which case I agree with Alison and suggest it would be better with the objects re-arranged preferably with more items (if you have them).
Overall this is all a bit "soft". I see from the metadata it was taken at f5 1.6s ISO 100 so the lamp is in focus but the nearer items are not sharp enough and that detracts. Better to shoot at more like f11, I think. Also, I would be tempted to lighten the shadow in the top left hand corner (if you are re-shooting, a white reflector like a newspaper would help here. Just a few suggestions.

40 Sep 19 Comment This doesn't work for me; it's very busy with a competing rock, headline and sky vs the figure in the water. It just looks like it's been underexposed. Also, perhaps not a great pose (I think I said the same about Bob's version a month or two back although that was technically a much better silhouette). In my opinion it would work better if cropped to remove the right hand side and foreground so that Jack was on a third. Sorry. Sep 15th
40 Sep 19 Comment Yes it is interesting. Nicely taken and well exposed but I think you have cropped too tightly on the left hand side (you could clone out the blue knee behind the woman) but overall a good street shot. Sep 15th
40 Sep 19 Comment Welcome to the group.
Good action shot. The workman is nicely set in context with concentration on the face. The lightening of the face is better. I would be tempted to crop off the reflection on the left hand side and tone down the white strip in the top right had corner and maybe also the water jet.

40 Sep 19 Comment It may have been a bit "overcooked" in post. Sep 10th
