24 Apr 21 Comment I think John's last crop is my choice The reflection of the perch and the bird takes this photo out of the bird book illustration class and
makes it real art.

24 Apr 21 Comment I don't see objectional noise in the original. It may be that that 's because I'm using the lap top. The Topaz seems to redice contrast besides softeing the picture. I use Define2 when I finish a photo in Adobe and the noise reduction program in On1 when I finish post processing in ON1. I think this is a great picture. If the background noise is a problem Define2 is a good choice because it is very easy to localize the reduction, Apr 4th

47 Apr 21 Comment Jen, this is a really beautiful image. I like Kirsti's crop. A little more contrast or perhaps just brightening the buildings would give it a little more contrast boost. Also on my screen the sky seems to have excessive noise. Apr 13th
47 Apr 21 Comment I think this is a spectacular image. Maybe the color saturation turned down might make it more realistic, but this is a dream. I would have it nicely framed. Perhaps a midnight blue frame would go well. Apr 13th
47 Apr 21 Comment This is a beautiful image- much more dramatic in B&W. I think it could be improved by cropping out the small tree on the right. This would give a little less center weight andmake the picture more dynamic and would emphasize the movement ofd the steam. Apr 13th
47 Apr 21 Comment This is very well composed and timed. I feel that the photo is a bid flat. The high key works well but the shadows could be darkened. P doesn't make it look old, but faded. You might experiment with different brown tone. Personally, I don't think sepia works that well. The curved border doesn't seem to serve any aesthetic purpose. As I wite this, I am glancing at a photograph of my father taken when he was about 10 years old (Ca 1905). The photograph is toned a warm brown and the tones are well balanced. Apr 13th
47 Apr 21 Comment This is a marvelous image. I am curious what you8 meant by having changed dthe ddrivers head Apr 13th
47 Apr 21 Comment I think you have chose a good subject and the composition has some very good aspects and some which I personally would alter. I would crop both sides to some point in the brick walls. I suggest you experiment with the contrast setting. Perhaps if the light tones were a bit brighter there would be more of a sense of depth without darkening the shadows and losing detail. I think the placement of the nearest person is spot on. The placement takes advantage of the dynamism of near-far composition. I think this photo as much to like and deserves a bit more work Apr 6th
47 Apr 21 Comment Thank you all. I certainly should have removed the white around picture. Sloppy of me. I don't know how I could get a lot more detail without oversharpening I also would worry that too much detail could be distracting. The three elements of the picture are the sky, the lake where the reflections of the help unfy the composition, and of course the mountains. I agree fully with Kristi's suggestion, which simplifies the photo and eliminates some unpleasantness in the upper right hand corner Apr 6th
