22 Jun 20 Comment Great composition. The stream leading to the falls does a great job of drawing the eye in. The waterfall provides a clear subject and focal point. I'm a little like Marti -- the dead tree doesn't bother me. Leaving any of the dead trees would not detract from the image, in my view. After all, it is a forest. Jun 11th
22 Jun 20 Comment I really like close-ups. They especially accentuate the beautiful, tiny details in nature. In my opinion, Joe's edits just enhanced your nice image. Jun 11th
22 Jun 20 Reply I like it. Thanks. Jun 9th
22 Jun 20 Comment I agree with the other comments about what a nice photo this is. In my opinion, it's slightly over-saturated. Jun 8th
22 Jun 20 Comment I'll be the odd one out but most viewers wouldn't get the quarantine connection. Although the title explains the image, this is still a scene that could be taken whether there was a quarantine or not. So to me, it doesn't speak isolation. Rather, you've got a nice shot of a couple of people hitting a tennis ball around. I'd probably even crop closer to the couple to draw more attention to the action.

22 Jun 20 Comment The Bluebonnet House is next to U.S. 281, north of Marble Falls, Texas. It's a popular photo op, especially when the bluebonnets are blooming. I've seen a zillion shots of this house. What I like about Peggy's version is that she processed the image to present a new and refreshing look. Just shows how you can take a much-photographed subject and give it a whole new perspective.

71 Jun 20 Comment Nice capture of the sunset and beautiful colors. As a suggestion, I would crop out the pier on the left. This would enable the eye to better focus on the pilings that lead us into the image. Jun 11th
71 Jun 20 Comment I like how you composed this -- the tree on the right balances the butte on the left. I think the mountain looks just fine -- it's very realistic to how these buttes look when you are there. I wouldn't change a thing. Jun 8th
71 Jun 20 Comment This would be a great shot on a travel brochure to promote Garden of the Gods. The path certainly leads the eye into the image and the two pedestrians illustrate visitors to the park. Jun 8th
71 Jun 20 Comment Perfectly exposed and composed. One question: Did you light the tree or was that produced by the lights in the park setting? Jun 8th
71 Jun 20 Reply Thank you! Jun 8th
71 Jun 20 Comment Nice photo. Perfectly executed. I suggest cropping out the little tower on the right. I believe you can do this without crowding the dune shack. To me, it seems a bit of an intrusion on the overall tone of the image. Jun 8th
71 Jun 20 Comment Beautiful shot and tack-sharp focus. The only suggestion I would make is to crop slightly off the left side and more off the top. The empty blue sky draws the eye off the photo and away from the pretty flowers and coastline. I've attached a sample crop. Jun 8th
