26 Aug 20 Comment Following your suggestions, I straightened the top of the bridge and cropped bottom and right. I agree that this is a much stronger composition, despite the fact that it is now more centered and symmetrical. Aug 8th
26 Aug 20 Comment You have captured the colors of the geyser beautifully. I would straighten the horizon line (between the orange and green layers) as the water appears to be running downhill to the left. Aug 6th
26 Aug 20 Comment I love the color palette presented here, as the pinks and reds are so dominant. Great pattern shot. Well done. Aug 6th
26 Aug 20 Comment Composition is spot on with nice balance between the rose and the bud in the lower left. The petals are sharp, and I like the way you have handled the greens so that they are not too bright. Aug 6th
26 Aug 20 Comment Every zebra's patterns are different and you have used that to create a very interesting composition. By co incidence, I also have a zebra picture in my group 69, but totally different to your interpretation. Check it out. Aug 6th

69 Aug 20 Reply I like this version best. It improves the background without detracting from the cub. Aug 13th
69 Aug 20 Comment Dean, you have combined these images very well and you were smart to take each image vertically in the first place. I see some strange horizontal lines in the top half of the picture - probably just artifacts from the process of combining them. They can easily be smoothed out with the healing tool. Your exposure is spot on. And I like the way you eliminated the bright street lights at the horizon line. Aug 9th
69 Aug 20 Comment Hi Dean, I would love to see the originals and how you combined them Aug 7th
69 Aug 20 Comment Thanks for sharing these wonderful views of your Australian outback. I have visited Aus twice, and only seem to have enough time to visit the coastal cities. My sister once drove from Darwin to Sydney and raves about that experience.
The colors here are amazing, and although the sky is bland, I would not add any clouds.

69 Aug 20 Comment What a beautiful image you have captured of this little cub. The pose and expression are darling. I would definitely darken the background by burning or using multiply with the history brush tool. That does not change any of the content and should be permissible under PSA guidelines. Aug 6th
69 Aug 20 Comment Your butterfly is perfectly sharp and stands out so well from the background. Please remove the white flower in the background or tone it down considerably. Great result with an iPhone. Aug 6th
69 Aug 20 Comment Great composition, Candy, and well done with your post process to make the birds stand out so well. I have seen many Limpkins here in S. Florida, but have never seen a chick.
I am amazed that you get so little noise at ISO 1600. My Tamron doesn't allow me to go beyond ISO 800.

69 Aug 20 Comment Pierre, you have a great subject here and the focus stacking really helps. On my monitor the yellow petal is very bright which detracts from the midge. Perhaps adding contrast will make it stand out more.
I do like Brenda's crop - diagonals are definitely more pleasing.

69 Aug 20 Comment The white fluff that you mention is part of the zebras right ear and I don't think it should be removed. Perhaps I can tone it down slightly. Aug 6th
