18 Dec 20 Comment I like every element of this well-conceived creative image. Super ****.

When I looked at the sand I saw arms and hands. Perhaps you have another image to make a variation of the woman sleeping in a person's hand?

18 Dec 20 Comment All you need to do now is convert it to oils on a gigantic canvas for hanging in the Tate! The only picky touch I suggest is lowering the yellow highlights to add a bit more texture.
My personal preference is generally for more saturated colors, but that is only one of many possible variations you could make with thia excellent composition.

20 Dec 20 Comment I like what you did very much. I would just like to see a bit more detail of the rider. Dec 20th
20 Dec 20 Reply I love Chihuly art glass, but Burbank, IT is the home and birthplace of blown glass. Chihuly rightly looks up to more than one of its artists. I hope to have a lengthy visit there sometime soon. 1922? Dec 20th
20 Dec 20 Reply Thanks.i have more fun now that I can roughly previsualize what my large array of filters may do when applied to a specific image.

I just got another idea for this tree based on what I just did for another image. There's no end it and that's great!

20 Dec 20 Comment Viewing this again, I think it's truly Hallmark quality. Dec 10th

20 Dec 20 Comment Google lens says this is commonly called a desert poplar tree. Beautiful as is, and your treatment makes it looking like it's bursting with energy to me. Very nice.

64 Dec 20 Comment Beautiful. I enjoy searching forced barns and houses. If I can avoid trespassing, I progress from this view to concentrate on details.

I would crop and clone this image to eliminate the road and posts, but i think it's pleasing as it is.

64 Dec 20 Reply Thanks. Yes, every image is a new challenge for us to decide how we want to render it. I often make multiple variations especially with creative images as I display in DDG20. Dec 23rd
64 Dec 20 Reply Thanks for seeing and pointing out the distraction.
Sepia and all other tones are totally flexible using Silver Effexor Pro or Photoshop. I chose the tone and intensity that at the time I felt was most appropriate.

64 Dec 20 Comment I just checked my Lightroom catalog and don't have that picture. Perhaps in my minds eye I thought how much better it could have appeared if it was marble! I guess I'm spoiled and don't even know if it's achievable by a master.

On the other hand, maybe a branch or two obscured it. I remember capturing some pictures as the wind provided a clear view of others.

I'm very happy that I have routinely keyworded my pictures to be able to do instant searching.

64 Dec 20 Reply Thanks. I hadn't realized it was photo journalism, but it is. Dec 15th
64 Dec 20 Reply Thanks, sometimes my thoughts get well communicated. I felt the large block of wood above the door forced my decision to center the image.

In general, I don't like titling my work, but again the rocks blocking entrance emphasized the boundaries strictly dictated to our tour group. A shame their privacy had probably been previously violated.

64 Dec 20 Comment Wonderful in every way. It would serve as an excellent introduction on a documentary presentation or movie. Dec 7th
64 Dec 20 Comment I'm also always stopping in my travels to document old barns. Now, I also concentrate on decaying details like the triangular bay window area and the detail in the shadows. There's lots to see here. Very good. Dec 7th
64 Dec 20 Comment It appears that the composition focuses my eye on the branch. I really like the wave patterns but it would be more appealing to me with detail in the branch. Dec 7th
64 Dec 20 Comment Jerry said it all. I think most sculptures have a best angle from which to view them. You did it! Dec 7th
64 Dec 20 Comment A beautiful simple image with the focus enhanced by the ripple in the water. ***** Dec 7th
