As to the cars behind the locomotive. I don't think they are particularly "photogenic". As far as photography is concerned, I wish the passenger cars in the consist were directly behind the locomotive, but then you have the issue of smoke for the passengers. The attached photo gives a view of the entire train. |

Not sure what you mean by taking several vertical shots and merging them. This is a moving subject. I don't see how this could have been accomplished. A wider lens would have accomplished this or taking the photo with the train further away such as in the attached photo. The train crew did two or three runbys at each location giving us opportunity for various compositions.

Ar first glance when I saw the photo, I was struck by all the detail, how busy it was, but your presentation of the subject in the middle of the photo with cobblestone sidewalk leading to the subject the detail fell away and my eye went to the subject. The bright lighting of the sidewalk made the dark subject stand out.
Well done. I enjoyed your photo! |

This is quite an interesting photo. I had to look at it for a while to really see what the subject was - not a bad thing. Josh's comparison to a woman is spot on!
I like the back lighting effect. I am not particularly bothered by the upper right corner, but I do wish the lower leaf was sharper. Perhaps focus stacking could have been used. |

I enjoy night photos of city lights and the light streaks from the moving cars.
Bright lights are always a problem in these type of photos. They are not easy to deal with. They are burned out highlights with no detail so you can't just reduce the exposure. They just turn grey. David suggested cloning them out. This is probably the easiest. Another suggestion would be to merge this photo with another with a shorter exposure so that the lights aren't burned out.
I am guessing that this was taken from through a window from a room several stories high. There are reflections in the window that would be nice if they are removed.
Thanks for sharing. You are making me think that I should make time and do the same in Minneapolis/St Paul before it gets too cold. :-) |

So much fun! It looks like your wife is having a really good time, and you are adding to her fun with the fun you have had editing the photo.
There is nothing that I can add that hasn't already been said. I like the photo as it is. Well done!! |

The composition is well done. The angle of the stem makes for a non-static composition. The image is "tack sharp". Well done.
As Josh pointed out, the shadow detail could be improved. By creating a mask of the insect in Lightroom, then moving the Shadows slider to the right, you are able to increase the detail in the darker areas of the bee without affecting the green background.
Thanks for sharing. I love up close macro photos of insects. |
