41 Nov 20 Comment I love twirls! Well done!

I agree with Brad about an awesome cow beautification process.

There is a great Facebook Group (well two Twirl This and Twirl On) with free actions for this and more https://www.facebook.com/groups/482441041930738

41 Nov 20 Comment I like the tulips ! But the black space does bother me (unless you use it for graphic text as Kathy did.

I would crop or darken the slight lift fringe bottom left (looks like Kathy edited that too)

I am confused by "In PS CC Bridge I played with the sliders"

Bridge does not have slides, did you mean to type ACR?

41 Nov 20 Reply great pun Brad Nov 29th
41 Nov 20 Comment Very creative! Love the story telling!
and this is icing on the cake "Rumple and the Miller's daughter, fell in love, married, opened a Yarn store and lived happily ever after."

The 7 images composite well, with Topaz tying them all together nicely. I would keep working on shadows--even a soft light blend mode blank layer and paint with 20% black would help

41 Nov 20 Comment I like the different approach, with the light coming in and lighting the flower from behind, warming it. I love the lines in the flower petals themselves. Wowza. The front of the flower has a color cast with purples that could be corrected with a color blend mode. Personally, I am not a fan of noise/grain but it works here.

I love Topaz products and I am a topaz affiliate. You can enter the discount use code breaphotos for 15% off Topaz products here https://web.topazlabs.com/ref/130 -- they have some good black Friday-cybermonday sales going on.

41 Nov 20 Reply Yhis is daylight live composite, the concept is the same for star trails. When making star trails people take 120 15 second exposures at night, and then bring them into PS and change the blend mode to lighten and viola they have star trails. Olympus does all of this in-camera using live composite. Nov 15th
41 Nov 20 Reply great idea for a future composite! Nov 15th
41 Nov 20 Reply Thanks!
Only a lot of work if you don't have Olympus, mine comes SOOC (straight out of camera)

44 Nov 20 Comment Great scene and composition and exposure. The blending works well. I love the greens and the line down the mt.

I am not sure about the clouds, they seem out of place tr too sharp and contrasty.

44 Nov 20 Comment I love scenes like this and miss them very much! I like the grass and the barn

The sky looks odd, grainy too. It also looks like some kind of ghosting or alignment issue with the clouds where they hiccup especially on the right.

OK, I had to try a sky replacement on it.

44 Nov 20 Reply I agree on the original crop Nov 29th
44 Nov 20 Reply I like this version better.

My first impression was wow, great composition, but the mountains were too blue.

44 Nov 20 Comment Great scene and composition, and great sky.

"As composed originally I had too much sky, so that was trimmed down in the final steps." It almost looks like a vertorama as it is now, hard to understand how a 24 would give even more sky. I would love to see one exposure sooc.

I might crop a tad off the bottom, just above the middle roofline on the bottom so it is not clipped.

It is fun to open older files and reprocess, even the non-HDR ones, because software and even ACR has changed so much, remember the horrid PS "recover"?

44 Nov 20 Comment << This was photographed during my honeymoon a couple of weeks ago. >> Congratulations!!

I love the scene, the layers into layers, but you keep seeing things.The details in the walls and floor are well done and the floor looks interesting.

Perhaps a slight crop (but I miss the crack now) and a straighten?

91 Nov 20 Comment I am impressed with f29 and the DOF and yet the plants are not blurry at 1/60 second.

Please make sure to include the SOOC so we can see how it compares, inquiring minds want to learn

91 Nov 20 Comment I love the clouds!

I am not sure that I understand the post-processing or what makes it infrared, I have much to learn. How would this look different here versus with visible light?
Nov 25th
91 Nov 20 Comment I love the couple. I don't tend to think of IR with people like this, but it works so well! Holding hands, their feet in action, so serendipitous!

I would also consider cropping the right side out

The bright spot on the left closer to us does bother me a tad though.
