24 Nov 17 Comment Tom,
You mentioned using ViewPoint. I just started using it with the intention of correcting thousands of framed paintings. I was discouraged from proceeding because my initial 50 MB file ballooned to 200 MB. Any suggestions?		 Nov 22nd
24 Nov 17 Comment I suggest lightening the greens or opening the shadows if that tool is available to you. Nov 22nd
24 Nov 17 Comment I think this is the first flat image I created that I like. I purposely left it flat just to see the reactions. Later, I was surprised when I read that Whistler said any painting that popped wasn't art. I guesss that's why his style was flat.

I'll make another version that pops. I always find it interesting to make variations of colors and crops. 		Nov 14th
24 Nov 17 Comment I have never used that software, but over the years I have made a lot of similar graphic images, often times using Pixel Bender (not supported since CS5). What I settled on as most pleasing to me was a square image format that was darker on the borders to draw the eye in. I also experimented with colors and was guided by a color wheel. I liked Increasing contrast and selectively changing colors to make them more complementary.
Have fun playing with it. 		Nov 6th
24 Nov 17 Comment This is an excellent image as is, but my personal preference is to have a dark vignette. Also, I may prefer to see the entire image painterly rather than just the foreground. Nov 5th
24 Nov 17 Comment I like this a lot. It's very interesting and well done, but I have a couple little tweaks to suggest.
There is slight but noticable keystoning on the left. I've learned to correct this in Lightroom by Rotating until a vertical line in the center is straight. Then a slight vertical adjustment will fully correct it.
Secondly, my preference would be to use a local blurring adjustment on the people, and slight local clarity adjustment on the items In the foreground to make them pop a bit more.		 Nov 5th

69 Nov 17 Comment Visiting from Group 34.
Lower Antelope Canyon is one of my favorite locations, and I've photographed it about 6 times since first visiting when it was relatively unknown 12 years ago. Too crowded now.

Yours is an excellent image, wth very appealing composition and lighting; one of the best I've ever seen. Perhaps, I would appreciate even more if the view had perhaps 10-20% added to the top. Maybe, you have an second image to merge with it. 		Nov 9th
