Your post-processing did much to enhance this image. I added a little contrast and clarity in Camera Raw and adjusted the light slightly in Curves. I look forward to seeing more of your series. |

You bring up a subject with such debate in photography. I got the impression that the background may not have been from a photo you took. Our club's rule for AI:
A generated artificial intelligence (AI) image is not considered to be a photographic image because it was created by an AI system and contains no image captured by the maker. Therefore, generated AI images will not be accepted in competitions. All components of a submitted image must be the maker's original work and do not contain elements created or captured by someone else or AI. A sky replacement is permitted but must be a sky photographed by the maker.
If a winning image is questioned, the maker may be asked to provide their raw image.
In our club, and I think PSA, if the background was not from a photograph you took, this would be considered graphic design rather than photography. As Charlie noted, the area around her nose and chin look strange. |

You have a good eye to see the artistic value in this scene. Your post-processing brought out the details and contrast in this somewhat abstract shot. Very nice! |

I like your crop and the colors very much. For me, the bee is reasonably in- focus even the hairs on the legs. I only wish that the center of the flower was a little more in focus. All in all, a very pleasing photo. |

The interplay between the two vines and contrast of light and dark are interesting. |

A beautiful image with a nice blurred background, focus and depth of field. Monochrome was the way to go with this. You have nice mid-tones and pure black, however, I think your model needs to have tones more on the white side. For me, most monochrome images really pop when you have tones going from pure white to pure black. |

Such a lovely scene and you handled the water so nicely - love how smooth it is. You have nice contrast with the church standing out as your focal point. I opened up the shadows in Camera Raw which I think shows more of the reflections in the water and makes the boats more visible. Your focus is good except there is something a little distracting around the steeple. All in all, a nice photo. |

You have a good eye. This is an interesting shot with great tones - from pure white to pure black. |

Technically, this is very well done with good focus, contrast and exposure. For me, the left side of the photo doesn't add anything to your story. The people in the left side are not engaged in the activity in the right. I cropped them out. Also, in telling the story, I would have liked to have seen what they were looking at. |

I like the angle at which you took this shot as well as the many details which show up better in black and white. I have a cousin who loves to find these trolls too. Your focus is excellent, however, I think that the tone is without strong black and white. |

I agree with James that this is a great scene but a little flat. I like the edit he did, but I would also darken the sky significantly. |

You make such interesting photos out of ordinary objects. I like your depth of field with the blurred background, however, I feel like your focus point of sharpness should have extended to the hammer itself. The hammer (right corner) is the closest in the image, but it isn't sharp. |

A lovely photo that is well seen. The snow adds so much to the image, You handled the whites perfectly. I love this! I, too, like birch trees. Growing up in Ct, we lived in a development called Birchdale Heights and enjoyed birch trees in our back yard. |

The butterfly weed really stands out against the black background. You have good focus and the lighting and colors are gorgeous. Perfect the way it is! |

What a wonderful shot. You have great details, even the puff of white fur on his horn. The eyes look great. Your post-processing is spot-on. Nice job. I wouldn't change a thing. |
