41 Sep 19 Comment Starting with an OK image and made it really pop! well done.
I like the sky a lot and the colors on the side of the ship.

The water could use some tweaking, dark and very sharp, seems like with a sky that colorful and bright there would be some of that color reflecting in the water. 		Sep 18th
41 Sep 19 Comment What a fun image! The expression of the dog is priceless!!!

<< I used a soft dark brush to create the shadows.>>
that makes a big difference.

41 Sep 19 Comment Adorable!!
I am sure that it was well-received at camp, and as a memory of you that he will cherish! Very creative!

The composite could use a little color toning and shadowing. Take a look at where the tiger's paws are in the tree image, darker on the bottom of the paw, so add some shadows.

On a different note...
Tell me more about the Triple D Game Farm in Kallispell, Montana
who did you go with? or did you arrange a private trip? I do not need instruction and don't want to pay the high instructor fees, but really want to go.

41 Sep 19 Comment I love the colors and movement and overall effect!!!
The image has pop and makes a statement.

The scarf could be toned down, as the tulips and the woman are the main subjects, but the scarf is the brightest thing.

It bothers me that her hand is cut off.

A subtle keystroke would help with online presentation to give us clear framework of where the image end. I often forget these with dark backgrounds because my PS workspace is grey, but PSA and many venues have a black workspace which calls for keystokes sometimes.		 Sep 18th
41 Sep 19 Reply I like this version more Sep 18th
41 Sep 19 Comment or even consider cropping it to emphasize the face. There is a lot of negative space... Sep 18th
41 Sep 19 Comment I love faces, and see the repeated spores of the fern as complimenting the faces you added.
love the image!

consider adding a color blend mode and dampening the brighter whites and grays and even the blacks...		 Sep 18th

44 Sep 19 Comment I love your finds! The composition works well here and the details really pop. It reminds me of a dinosaur ready to eat something. well done! Sep 21st
44 Sep 19 Comment I love abandoned places, but it is sad to see them taken over in this fashion, rather than just left to nature taking over.

How did you edit that original into the inside scene? LOL. I assume that they are just two variants...

The doorway and woodwork at the door need some dehaze or something		 Sep 21st
44 Sep 19 Comment I love old houses and I have photographed this one a few times.

The house itself is wonderful, composition, colors, tone mapping! love it!

I would not have known this "Aurora 2019 using the Randy Van Duinen Looks, Exterior Day + Shadows" unless you told me, so well done

I might have to re-look at Aurora.

The sky is too grainy for my taste, and perhaps you can even crop some of it out.

Overall I love your capture and creation of this old house!

44 Sep 19 Comment Nice capture and overall scene and tone mapping well done.

The grass seems a little neon-y to me.

perhaps a very slight vignette to hold is in the frame since it is bright throughout. 		Sep 21st
44 Sep 19 Comment The composition is pleasing and yet tense with the water and leading into the waterfall, rather than the water falling to the right. The tone mapping is nice!

Topaz Studio 2 is not my favorite, then again I have not yet bonded to Aurora either.

only thing to improve, the white sky upper left. 		Sep 21st
44 Sep 19 Comment very peaceful and pastoral. Blend is nice.


You even have an off number of animals, LOL

Not much if anything to improve, perhaps a tad more contrast in the grasses.		 Sep 21st
