26 Nov 21 Reply Hi Tom. Thanks for visiting our group.
We sat on a bench across the bay, sipping wine as we waited for the sun to drop and the yachts to come around for their sunset viewing.		 Nov 14th
26 Nov 21 Comment Andy, welcome to our group. I can already see that I am going to enjoy your images.
The color palette that you have chosen here is fantastic. A simple image but beautifully presented.		 Nov 11th
26 Nov 21 Comment This is a nice clean uncluttered presentation. I am enjoying the diagonal composition, and the colors certainly do pop.

My only suggestion is to add a 1 or 2 pixel stroke to show us where the frame ends.		 Nov 11th
26 Nov 21 Comment Your fisheye tool does some amazing things to the original. It took me quite a while to work out what is happening here. However the final result is really very artistic and abstract. It really emphasizes the artist inside of you! Nov 11th
26 Nov 21 Comment You have certainly captured the moment, and his expression is fantastic. His face is so sharp and captivating that it holds my attention sufficiently not to notice the minor blemishes.
I like the inclusion of the second runner, out of focus as this helps to show us what is really happening.		 Nov 11th
26 Nov 21 Comment The sky is quite dramatic and you have done well with your processing to bring out the warm colors of the scene.
I would like to see more foreground to balance out the landscape. But of course I wasn't there so don't know what else may have obstructed the view!		 Nov 11th

69 Nov 21 Comment You have captured the mood in this scene with the mist rising off the water. I recommend lightning the knees to give them some detail. The background is bright, but that's where the sun is rising, so there not much you can do about that. Nov 16th
69 Nov 21 Comment Once again I am wowed by your bird images, Geoff. The colors are great and you have achieved good depth of field despite using an aperture of f8.
There is a gannet colony in South Africa that I have visited, but it is so difficult to get any separation. So well done with this composition.		 Nov 9th
69 Nov 21 Comment The fall foliage is great and the waterfall is well depicted. As you said, the sky is uninteresting, so why not crop it out altogether?
I have presented it here as a vertical. What do you think?		 Nov 9th
69 Nov 21 Comment This is a difficult subject matter and unfortunately the insect does not stand out enough from its surroundings.
Follow the tips that Pierre has suggested and continue to improve your photography.		 Nov 9th
69 Nov 21 Comment The four ducklings are so cute. Yes, the front duckling is still a little soft but is part of the story.
I might amputate the mothers neck a bit more. This will help to eliminate some of the dead space in the upper right.		 Nov 9th
69 Nov 21 Comment The squirrel is great - nice and sharp with a good catch light in the eye. he also stands out well from the background.
The out of focus grass in the lower foreground is distracting to me, and so I would suggest cropping it out. I would also crop the right side to include that leaf which he appears to be looking at.		 Nov 9th
