18 Sep 17 Comment JoAnn, your stunning image challenges me with some ideas of making images of the "Salties" we also get in Duluth, Minnesota where I live. I find it hard to imagine living anywhere else than 100 feet from the shore of Lake Superior as we do now in our retirement town house. Henry Roberts Group 40. Sep 18th
18 Sep 17 Comment Mike, I like the way you have used Topaz and Liquify to achieve your final result. Very creative! Sep 18th
18 Sep 17 Comment Andrew, what a wonderful creation! Sep 18th

40 Sep 17 Comment Karen, you created a wonderful work of art by starting with your sister's fused glass and your manipulation of the fish skeleton. What a wonderful imagination you have! The eyes complete what would otherwise have looked dead blank. Nice work! Sep 18th
40 Sep 17 Comment Curtis, this taken a moment later would have been too late. The tree with the sun kissing its branches is a focal point for the viewers eyes. Wonderful. I like the sharpness of the grasses in the foreground at the edge of the lake.

Your second trial in response to Jamie brings out the wonderful red in the fall leaves.		 Sep 18th
40 Sep 17 Comment Jamie, I feel as though I am walking down a woodland trail of solitude, expecting a deer to shyly pass by. The touch red maple leaves speak of fall approaching. If all of the forest had leaves turning red, it would have been too much. This is exquisite!

Suggestions? The next time when you are taking this, take two images, one where you are standing and one when you are crouching low to the road. See which one you like best.		 Sep 18th
40 Sep 17 Comment Bai, as you always do you have captured this dusk or night scene perfectly. The spire on the left, the boat in the foreground, and the pier all balance each other. The sky and the darkness of the water make no doubt that this is taken at dusk.

This really captures the feel of a metropolitan area at the conclusion of the day with evening lights coming on.

Can I make any suggestions? Well, if I searched, I would say that the boat could have been caught a little more to the right so that it is moving into the center of the picture instead of moving out to the left. But this is just minor personal taste.

I would second the comments of Curtis, Jamie, and Susan.

Another stabilizing idea to add to Susan's is to buy a screw eye bolt that will screw into the tripod thread on the bottom of your camera. Then get a length of cord, run it through the screw eye and then tie the cord in a loop. Screw the screw eye into the camera, drop the loop beneath your feet spread apart on the ground and pull up so the cord is tight and take your picture. This is certainly not as good as a tripod or bean bag but it will be more steady than hand holding. But it is light and slides into the bottom of a pocket. And of course you can always just increase the ISO on modern cameras which still results in good images without too much grain.		 Sep 18th
40 Sep 17 Comment Susan, this is a wonderful image. Were it mine, I would want a little detail in Katachi's body such as some slight detail in the eye. However, this is a silhouette so no detail is fine.

Jamie and Curtis have fine comments.		 Sep 18th
40 Sep 17 Comment Andrew, this is a beautiful image of the window in St. Michaels Church in Hamburg. I have no suggestions other than not slightly clipping the top of the window frame.

Now looking at the comments of the others I would agree with their suggestions.		 Sep 18th
