41 May 19 Comment love the clouds and the bear, and the boat! well done! the selections and blending and final compositing are well handled. You added detail to make it believable, like the boat reflection in the water.

the moon is too much (color and brightness) for my taste, distracts from the other wonderful elements, but the gulls are in a good place/opacity.

41 May 19 Reply Thanks for the explanation Sue...
cannot wait to see composited baby photos!		 May 5th
41 May 19 Comment good job removing the distracting elements! and extracting her and placing her in the frame.

story-wise, perhaps change the words to like Harvard or something to indicate her thinking about the baby's future???

cannot wait to see baby images! glad that you had a good model, and another on the way!

41 May 19 Comment what a cool combination of elements!

welcome! glad to see your creative spirit in action!

love the egret and the water and the offering of the hands!

Try flipping it so we stay on the eye/beak rather than, as we read left to right, the bird's butt.
The white border draws my eye away from all of this creativity...

perhaps tone down the brightness of the hands and decrease the opacity of the flowers on the bottom a little.		 May 5th
41 May 19 Comment wow! imagination!
interesting combination. It took me a minute to see the girl, she is a tad dark or she needs to be larger.

but the mood and the feeling and blending are well done		 May 5th
41 May 19 Comment interesting blend, changes the feel, and the slight colors work.

The heavy weighted left side with the black is not as pleasing here
but I love the stars on top of the water.		 May 5th

44 May 19 Comment wow, what a place! and great time/light! Dramatic!

I like the inclusion of the foreground, complements the mountains, a tad more sky might be good for balance, seems like a tight crop.
The darks and brights seem to be lacking some detail.

one thing that would be fun for this group is a common upload location where we could process each other's RAW files using our various post-processing...		 May 16th
44 May 19 Comment love the time of day, colors, foreground, etc.

The blend is quite good

perhaps make more of a pano aspect ration so that there is less blue bald sky. That much blue sky is great for a magazine, for an ad, etc as there is a place for text, but for this version perhaps less sky...		 May 16th

44 May 19 Reply or change the blue? May 16th
44 May 19 Reply yes, going for darker.
I agree about the thing on the lower left, sometimes I think that I remove too much, so I catch myself and hold back, seems this time it would have been good to do

love the photobomb take, the door was off the hinges and inside the blue is the outside wall. Wonder If BW would be better?		 May 15th
44 May 19 Comment love the clouds and rainbow, could be an image in an of itself!

Blend looks good, has an painterly feel

perhaps saturate the rainbow a tad?

44 May 19 Reply thanks, wish we had something near us!

of course it looks kinda weird, I was working on a very small JPG in ACR. Not a full size RAW file. Send me the RAW files from last month, I would love to play. photographer67 [at] comcast.net		 May 5th
44 May 19 Comment Bob, I edited last month's just for fun... May 5th
44 May 19 Comment ooh, love the colors!
and the images takes on a painterly feel

the downhill pews are a tad distracting, but the composition and weight and emphasis on the windows minimizes that.

how about a mirrored image?		 May 5th
44 May 19 Comment I like this image better than last month's! The warm color indicates a good time of day, and there are details in teh truck, and the trees complement the colors of the truck.

where is this? never heard of it, I love old cars and trucks, sounds like I should visit

unusual set of exposures --> -5, 0 +1 --> did you take seven exposures and just use 3 or did you shoot manual and 		May 5th

63 May 19 Comment Red is a hard color, your image captured it well. Love the feathery look and the position of the center off to the side ina power point

The edit makes the flower pistel and stamen pop out!

consider cloning out the green near the flower center, not needed and distracting

a little more clean up in the upper left would be good.		 May 15th
63 May 19 Comment wow, never seen one of these up close like this! love the wings!

is it alive?
what is the light source?
the light seems to be coming from the left, makes that tail thingy kinda halo-y

There is an easily editable background goober lower left.

"usual manner with some 40 images taken with a Canon Macro with a WeMacro rail"
would love more details, I do not know what "the usual manner is"
Aperture? Helcion focus to stack?		 May 15th
63 May 19 Comment adorable cat, like the green eyes up close. I especially love the colors on the left side (cat's right eye) May 5th
63 May 19 Comment I love the subject, colors, and composition. The placement of the taller ones in a power point of the rule of thirds works well here. The rain added to the wonderful color saturation. You choose a good aperture to get good detail front to back.

There are little hotspots in each, funny how, even on a cloudy day, a polarizer and/or diffuser is still helpful.

63 May 19 Comment I love decay, and the colors in here capture my attention. Anytime you can have colors at opposite ends of the color wheel, like these blue and yellow, it adds impact.

Because of the top I thought that it was a car door, with the window at the top, but then I read street wall...

The top is quite soft, perhaps crop it, or next time try ISO 200 and f4 or 5.6.

wait, you said iPhone 6, how are you getting ISO and shutter speed in an old ipohne, inquiring minds want to know...		 May 5th
