Hi Jen, I like the image as is. The contrast and darkness give a really eery feeling and, to my eye, I think that was your intent. I cannot add much more than has already been said. Perhaps of the eye in the shadows showed more …
I thought I would try to bring out the hidden eye in PSCC. I would be interested in your thoughts.
Thank you for sharing your imagination with us with this image. |

Good afternoon Albert,
This is, to my eye, a really dynamic image. I have to agree with John and Sharon. The lighter version makes it easier for me to distinguish the temple from the tree roots. I do see a wonderful story here - a story of ages and persistence in nature along with the ability to build something that will survive for centuries.
As I look at the image the person truly gives it a sense of the scale of both the temple and the tree - impressive size that would have been lost without that sense of scale.
A wonderful image. I have family in Cambodia and hope to be able to see this in person some day. |

Hi Don, were it not for the other comments I would have thought I was looking in a mirror :-)
I do not have anything to add to what has already been said - a priceless image with a great expression. Well done !
Thank you for sharing with us. |

Good afternoon Sharon. I am actually caught between the two. I really like the detail in the leather in the original - particularly the tonality of chaps. Yet the monochrome version brings out more of the detail in the saddle work.
I do agree with Jack and John (nice work on his version) that the image appears very busy to me and I am not sure on what to focus. Yet at the same time there is an overall sense of coherence with the image as you have submitted it.
I tried playing with it in PSCC a bit, but was not able to come up with anything better in the short time in which I was experimenting.
Overall I have to say that I like it as is, but would be most interested in seeing what your work on it in the future. Thank you for sharing it with us. |

I chose the crop I did so as not to have the background buildings going out of the frame of the image. I also wanted to keep as much of the semicircular platform as possible. Having said that I did try a closer crop, let me know what you think |

HI John, I like image. However a closer crop would, I think, have made a more powerful image. For me the center of attention was the man made formation, but there is so much else in the image that my attention and my eye wander all over. So from the story telling aspect it is hard for me to create one. I copied the image and did some work in PSCC. I would be interested in your thoughts on the result.
Over all, as I said, I do like the image. Thank you for sharing it with us. |

Hi Jack, I have to agree with Sharon and John in their comments. I would have preferred the plant not go out of the frame, and were it brighter it might more of a distraction. To my eye it does not present a particular problem. Over all I think it to be a good image that tells me a story of persistence - a plant growing in a difficult place, yet still growing. |
