4	Oct 24	Reply	Erik, the Denoise AI incorporated into LightRoom and ACR does an excellent job.	Oct 24th
4	Oct 24	Reply	Yes Guy, it was very dark inside with only a couple of incandescent bulbs.	Oct 24th
4	Oct 24	Comment	Gary, incredible light and composition. Eric's touch up made it perfect. I visited the Mission a while back, but it was the middle of the day with very harsh light.	Oct 24th
4	Oct 24	Comment	Ian, great detail, sharpness, nice colors, but as Gary said, static. Perhaps a bigger picture would have a greater story telling. I have a big collection of windows and doors from around the world. I alway get an additional bigger picture for context.	Oct 9th
4	Oct 24	Comment	Erik, did you hear when he asked very politely, with your permission young lady !! Indeed she is ready for it. If you plan that you want to obtain this image, you would still be waiting. Great image.	Oct 9th
4	Oct 24	Comment	Vella, my guess is that you were trying to obtain a very high key, and surreal effect which you did. Gary's PP brought back detail which precludes the effect.	Oct 9th
4	Oct 24	Comment	Guy, impressive location, location, location. Obviously it is a very low tide. Lovely place to visit. Great PP results.	Oct 9th
4	Oct 24	Reply	Gary, I guess you just take the train to the next town or drive up the hill.....	Oct 9th
4	Oct 24	Comment	Bill, indeed an Infrared image created with the iPhone. I love the contrast created by the shadows of the fence. It is very sharp. About the white border, I would preffer to see it all around the image.	Oct 9th

15	Oct 24	Reply	Ted, it is interesting your comment. I have included more of the reflection in other bird image and most of the comments brings up that the reflection is distracting. Thanks for visiting.	Oct 24th
15	Oct 24	Reply	Kathy, I handle all my bird images as if they are going to a Natures salon, which is one of the reality divisions of PSA. I know that in this group we can do it, but I do not.	Oct 15th
15	Oct 24	Reply	Gloria, that is their color....	Oct 15th
15	Oct 24	Comment	Kathy, indeed the Hawk is is a watching for food body language. The bird is sharp, and the background is out of focus. It is unfortunate that there is a bright line of the background just touching the front of the bird what makes the area somehow fuzzy and not with good definition. Using the masking brushes in ACR I reduced the brightneess at that point in he background, added a little more light to the hawk, and contrast, improving the area.	Oct 9th
15	Oct 24	Comment	Sarita, perfect image of a hummingbird frozen in air with a non distracting background and a very sharp bird and flower. Nothing to suggest improvement.	Oct 9th
15	Oct 24	Comment	Pei-Fan, beautiful bird and very bright colors contrasting the green with the orange of the fruits. The image is sharp and has a very good composition with the branches of the fruit bush. I think there is too much empty space, so I cropped it.	Oct 9th
15	Oct 24	Comment	Jerry, the Snowy Egret is in a fishing state of mind. Good vantage point. Sharp. The background is a bit too dark obscuring the environment. Just added some light to the shadows.	Oct 9th
15	Oct 24	Comment	Gloria, this is a follow up to your image of last August when the Frigatebirds were courting, with one of the adults caring for the young chick in a very protective way. The image is sharp. The background is too bright so I decreased it and added a little contrast to the birds.	Oct 9th

58	Oct 24	Reply	Pinaki, Rgahubir Singh's photography is very interesting. Every viewers vision is most likely different. I would like you to elaborate a little more of what do you mean with "all of them are snapshots (technically)"	Oct 27th
58	Oct 24	Reply	Pinaki, most of the street photography images are "snapshots'. You are shooting from the hip almost every time. There is no time for planning and make a "good" composition unless it is a landscape or city scape.	Oct 24th
58	Oct 24	Comment	Kathleen, the red line on the wall is the main subject in this image, and leads our eyes towards the back of the image where there is some people standing, and some geometric structures piled up. It is sharp and well illuminated.	Oct 3rd
58	Oct 24	Comment	Ed, in these festivals we have to be happy with what we can capture being the vantage points sometimes difficult to approach, or too many spectators around and in the background as you describe. The image is at peak of action between the two contenders. It is sharp. It is a pity that one of the man is amputated.	Oct 3rd
58	Oct 24	Comment	Bruce, I see your intention to eliminate the people from the image, but I think there were too many persons not moving, which is imperative to achieve this with multiple long exposure frames and then blended together. Indeed a magnificent architectural structure, with lots of detail shown in your panorama reconstruction.	Oct 3rd
58	Oct 24	Comment	Pinaki, I think that the fireworks going on are overpowering the scene, being very distracting, and blocking the figure in the background which seems to be the main subject being photographed.	Oct 3rd
58	Oct 24	Comment	Bev, interesting interaction between the teacher and the students which in reality seem to be paying attention to her.The image is slightly soft probably due to a slow shutter speed, or slight camera movement. I just made the verticals straight and cropped tighter.	Oct 3rd
58	Oct 24	Reply	Bev, I never intended to remove the car since I think is part of the street scene, but just for the heck of doing it, and using generative fill in ACR, this is what I obtained, which is pretty good.	Oct 3rd

59	Oct 24	Comment	Don, great image indeed. Nor much else to say after Bruce and Hans comments.	Oct 9th
59	Oct 24	Comment	Gerald, image at peak of action, and as you describe created from a difficult but selected vantage point. It is sharp. All four feet's are in the air and visible in the frame, and of course, the players on the bench in the background.	Oct 3rd
59	Oct 24	Comment	Ronald, it has been said that a sport image where any sort of ball is involved, it should be in the frame, as well as the eyes following the ball. Here we have a bunch of eyes lost lucking at the open space. I am sure that you have a burst of images where the ball is still or back into the frame, but I get that your intention indeed is to show us and make us anticipate what is going the happen next.	Oct 3rd
59	Oct 24	Comment	Hans, air shows are great photo opportunities, but with a great deal of challenge specially to capture images like this one, where you have to have some knowledge and anticipation of what is going to happen, or just be fast and lucky. Obviously both planes were on the same plane (pun intended) but your vantage point was not favorable to get the image as such. Sharp and full of action.	Oct 3rd
59	Oct 24	Comment	Bruce, I have never seen this particular event in the Rodeos I have photographed in Florida. It looks like pandemonium, with all these grown up men trying to stop the cow to milk it. The image is sharp and the background is not distracting.	Oct 3rd

72	Oct 24	Reply	Maria, that what you see as areas that have been missed, is dry mud on the back of the elephants. Suerte de vuelta a España.	Oct 26th
72	Oct 24	Comment	Barbara, it is interesting as how the Emu blends with the background colors. Goos selection of crop making it to stand out in the frame. It is sharp. Using a linear adjusting mask I added a little more light to the left side of the Emu which is in shadows and lacks detail.	Oct 9th
72	Oct 24	Comment	Adrian, the landscapes images of this area of the world are just great. Nice composition with the floating ice in the front. It is interesting as how the country was named Greenland, there is very little green there. I did work on the Luminance, contrast and white/black points improving those areas.	Oct 9th
72	Oct 24	Comment	Maria, great image of the grasshopper. Of course the DOF is limited, but Bruce's adjustments also improved the sharpness towards the back and makes it to stand out better. Good eye.	Oct 9th
72	Oct 24	Comment	Bruce, beautiful image of the pronghorn that has already shed the antlers or horns for the year. Nice non distracting background. Thanks for the additional image of the Mormon Barn.	Oct 3rd
