26 Jan 20 Comment This picture works by being centered. It has great depth, the colors and patterns are interesting. How lucky were you to get there before the crowds! Jan 7th
26 Jan 20 Comment Another happy Xmas scene to highlight the Holidays. And you were lucky not to have the street filled with people. I would clone out the one "half" person behind the sign, and the squiggly electric wire on the top. happy Holidays to you and your family. Jan 7th
26 Jan 20 Comment Happy New Year, Bob. I find this a happy, colorful rendition of what the holidays should be. The people in the store add interest for me, particularly the red jacket. I think the car lights are fine, and adds to the color of the scene. Obviously it would have been better if those lines were going vertically into the picture, but then you would have lost the close up details of the building.
I think the missing "R" is fine as my brain is able to recognize it. I probably would have cropped out the pole on the right side completely, as I don't think it adds anything to the composition.		 Jan 7th

69 Jan 20 Comment It was a very misty day. Hence the brightness. Jan 11th
69 Jan 20 Comment Hi Jacob, Please give your pictures a title for future identification.
I have no idea what this plant is but I do find it quite interesting. It is extremely sharp for an iPhone picture. I took it into photoshop to make the following adjustments:
1)Increased the blue in hue/saturation,
2)Removed straggly branches on the right with the spot healing brush.
3) opened camera raw in the filters panel and used De Haze to about 40.
4)Crop to a vertical. Eliminated most of the distracting right side, some of the left and some from the top.
5)History brush- multiply at about 25- to darken the borders.		 Jan 10th
69 Jan 20 Comment Another great gannet picture. I agree with the other comments about the waves. Jan 6th
69 Jan 20 Comment We were in Antelope Canyon in 2018. How did you get this shot without masses of people in the way? We were also there too late in the year and so missed the sunbeam entering the canyon. Your composition is excellent and smoothing out the foreground definitely helps the image. Jan 6th
69 Jan 20 Comment Great capture with everything perfectly sharp. And well done with the sky replacement. Jan 6th
69 Jan 20 Comment You have captured a nice alert pose, but the image appears washed out on my monitor. Perhaps a little more contrast will help. Great catch light in the eye. Did you use a flash? Jan 6th
69 Jan 20 Comment I like the starburst effect as it is a different approach to the image. The 3 birds (or is it a montage of the same bird?) show different stages of their flight. The birds are a little dark, almost silhouette, but is acceptable to me in this case. Jan 6th
69 Jan 20 Reply Thanks, Brenda. I took it into photoshop and did some editing, but minimally. Mainly contrast and brightness. Jan 6th
