17 Oct 20 Comment Definitely a "WOW" image. Well composed and great work on the brilliant colors and extraordinary background. Another possible variation would be total black or total white as the background. Oct 22nd
17 Oct 20 Reply Great suggestions Larry. I will re-visit that image with those in mind. Oct 22nd
17 Oct 20 Comment A good technical achievement considering the moving train and window reflections. Oct 22nd
17 Oct 20 Comment Definitely an interesting photo with a unique perspective and composition. The focus seems a bit soft even on the front horse. Luminar claims to have a quick and easy sky replacement using AI technology. I wonder how it would work on this image. Oct 22nd
17 Oct 20 Comment You achieved an attractive "painterly" effect with this image. It no longer looks like a photograph but is now an accomplished artist rendering. Oct 22nd
17 Oct 20 Comment A very abstract look and feel. Since this image has some very nice texture and muted colors, a Black/White conversion with lots of clarity and contrast might work well. Oct 22nd
17 Oct 20 Comment Not much I can add to the other comments. It is always interesting to experiment with different software tools and find some surprising results. Being a car guy (40 years with General Motors), I would have preferred to see some amazing detail in this old hood ornament. Oct 22nd

89 Oct 20 Comment By being a good observer, you found this bird in the trees. As you mentioned, the focus is soft. My experience with birds is always have your camera settings with a fast shutter speed, especially for hand-held shots. The other obvious problem is the clutter background. You can minimize that in Lightroom or photoshop. Oct 22nd
89 Oct 20 Comment Nicely captured Tage. The camera is at eye level and the open mouth is a bonus. I agree with Margaret on the green cactus foliage - It needs to be toned down and let the iguana be the star. Oct 22nd
89 Oct 20 Comment Nicely done Margaret. Since the tree is almost a silhouette and the sky has some good clouds, you might try a Black/White conversion bringing out the texture in the foreground rocks. Oct 22nd
89 Oct 20 Comment You choose a challenging subject. It is very difficult to get this perfectly captured, but practice and experience are the key. This image is a little soft and the splashing water is also obscuring the details. The composition is excellent. You did not mention the shutter speed, but it should have ben at least 1/2000 second to insure sharp focus. Oct 22nd
89 Oct 20 Comment Thanks Gary. The flash does all of the exposure work. With the relatively low ISO value, the ambient exposure is insignificant. This is a setup whereby the camera triggered remote flashes positioned near the hummingbird. Oct 10th
