Guy, perfect vantage point to be able to include the sequence of three distinctive bridges each one with different shapes and construction characteristics, with the added interest that each one is illuminated by a different color of light. I like the sky with dense clouds and just opening slightly to let the moon show up. It is sharp. The 10 seconds exposure created a soft water surface. I also agree with the distracting very intense and large illuminated sign in red reflecting of the building. Fixed with the selection and content awareness fill and the clone stamp. |

Bill, good eye. The cross over shadow lines from the fence with the shadows of the stairs creates a nice intrincate pattern. I also agree with Joseph crop |

It looks like "an artistic blur" of the Palouse Rolling Hills in Washington State |

Erik, I do not know if magnificent overpowers Awsome, and if that is the case, that would be my title. The light is just like a dream. This is one of the most beautiful landscapes images I have seen, with the combination of complementary colors, composition and elements photographed. The path takes your eyes into the scene. Now, the question of to Flip or not to flip ?? |

David, the rendered abstract image resembles spaghettis of multiple colors. Except for the red bunch at the top, there is no interest point in the image. It feels like waves of light. |

Ian, great portrait image. The lighting is just perfect and the hand still shows the fingers with the cigarette. It is sharp. The posing is just great. The white frame separates the image from the background. |

Joe, we just learned from the observing eyes of Helen and Stephen. Indeed your image is a well disorganized set of windows of different sizes and placement on the wall, which has a hint of similarity to the showed piece of art for the golden color and the empty space at the right upper corner. It is sharp. The colors are well handled. |

I just looking again to the image did a little more work. Did a selection of the hat and neck, inverted it, and with the cloning stamp at 20 % was able to eliminate the bar growing out his head. I think it looks much better. |

Hassan, the 1/20 sec shutter speed allowed for the blurred motion of the arm and basket ball at the right lower corner of the frame, and also is interesting that the fence as well as the players and background are in focus including the cable car. I do not know if you could have changed your vantage point to include the whole body of the players. I prefer a tighter crop, eliminating some of the empty space. |

Jim, the kid is very happy to be flying high and does not look afraid at all. The HDR processing (single image ??) rendered a more contrasty image with very intense blues, and I am not sure if I understand what do you mean with red post removed....Some of the bystanders are looking at the action, but most of them are looking away from them, probably to the parade. The background is slightly blurred taking away some of the distraction. |

Gloria, good capture and B & W rendition of the image. It is interesting as how some of the passengers became aware of you and gave you the thumb up sign and the person next to his arm is just looking at you. The rest of the people are just minding their own business. The contrast is good, and the image is sharp in spite of the 1/50 sec shutter speed. You did not disclose ISO information. |

Dan, the woman is concentrated "decorating" the dog, which seems resignated to what is happening to him/her. There is a lot going on in the background which is somehow distracting and there are a few poles growing out of the woman head. It is very important to be aware of the background, and to use a larger f/stop to try to blur it and also move around to try to avoid the poles. I cropped the image to remove some of the distracting elements and added a vignette to obscure somehow the remaining distracting elements, and to concentrate the view to the dog and master. |

Daniel, great capture. You have a very good eye. The juxtaposition of the woman's and the store window red and blue clothing just creates a perfect framing and balance, with the added interest of the picture of the face of a woman in the background looking out and the concentration of the woman asking for directions in the front. It is sharp, good composition with the added building wall that work as a secondary framing. |

Adrian, great capture and thinking outside of the box. The whiskers are the center of attention which I enhanced considerably by flipping the image, adding clarity for more light to the whiskers, a little crop and adding a vignette. |

Kent, great capture. In spite of the underexposed image, you were able to add light to the shadows without creating much noise, thanks to the low ISO used. The birds are sharp, the colors are nice, and the position in the frame is also good. The alternating position of the wings adds interest to the image. |

Abhijeet, beautiful bird, but unfortunately it is backlith, and the area of the orange feathers is overexposed with loss of detail. The handheld capture at 600 mm gave you a good sharp image, with a Shutter speed of 1/4000sec, but the amount of cropping of a file from the Nikon D750 (24 megapixels) rendered a soft image. You were able to bring out most of the bird's colors in your PP.
I wondered if the presence of the electrical wire represents men intervention ?? |

Mary, this is another creative image in your portfolio. I like the face like center of the blur, and yes you can say the image belongs to the wildlife category being related to the crabs. |

Bruce, tack sharp image of the owl coming towards you. I am surprised the only 1/1000 sec froze it that well. The colors are intense, the position of the owl in the frame is good, created by the crop. The file size is big enough to allow for that amount of cropping without loosing sharpness. I was debating whether or not to clean the little bushes on the lower corner, but then I decided it gives you reference to proximity to the ground. |

Walt, indeed this is a magnificent image of Mt Rainier, and the lenticular cloud sits on its top like a crown. For some reason the central location of the mountain, and the middle position of the crystal clear mirror reflection horizon line works well on the image. It is sharp, I like the composition with the trees on each side framing the mountain, so I would not crop it. The localized sunlight (sunrise or sunset ??) illuminates the crown giving more impact to the image. I like thge colors you brought out in your PP. |

Donna, great capture. I like the high key background. Added a preset from Luminar 2018 "Fix Dark Image" and brought out more color in the fur. I find the branches on top distracting. Very sharp. Good placement in the frame. |

Colin, great eye and patience. Good use of negative space. At first I thought of cropping, but it did not add anything. The blurred shoe indeed denotes movement. Lots of leading lines taking your eyes towards the shoes. |

Maybe she was about to sneeze. Good B&W rendition. The image is sharp. The woman in the corner creates the balance to the image. |
