66 May 22 Comment Hi Henry, We are so happy to have you join our group. Welcome!
We too have done a river cruise. Ours was on the Danube with fall colors. Wow is all I can say!
This is a very powerful image, With wonderful detail both on the castle, as well as foreground hill. The color rendition gives an even more old world feel. I like the crop with the extra tree on the skyline.
My personal taste would be to make the sky more subdued and not such a bright blue. I not sure that our fellow members would agree with me.
Either way, a beautiful submission.		 May 8th
66 May 22 Comment Hi Emil,
There will never be enough barn pictures especially in IR. The three items make for a very well designed composition. The sky does not compete, while looking perfect for the image. Even though I was happy with your first version, the second does have the punch needed to give depth. Well done!		 May 8th
66 May 22 Comment Hi Palli,
This really is fine art. The background figures create a lovely design while framing the little girl. She is properly placed with a great expression. I do agree that her face and top should be lightened. 		May 8th
66 May 22 Comment Hi Gary,
This is such a gracious building which you have presented so well. The clouds of course help to give it a finish. But the thing I like most is the tree line, especially the majestic mulberry. Loved the story!		 May 8th
66 May 22 Comment Hi Chuck, A lovey scene indeed. There really is something about an empty bench and this one has such a tranquil and peaceful view. The blue tones are very inviting. I would love to see the central trees with a dash more brightness making them whiter. Well done! May 8th
66 May 22 Comment Ah Jack, We are like minded this month. I just love that sky. It adds drama and perspective. You are much smarted that I in that you know to take this kind of image from the middle of the road! I do think that darkening the fields will highlight the edge grasses. BTW I like that it is a little off center. Well seen May 8th
66 May 22 Comment Hi Arik,
I love aspects of things and this is just right. The broken board adds so much. The tones are lovely. My only quibble is that there is detail under the eve. I wonder if you may have wanted the stark black there?		 May 8th
66 May 22 Reply Thanks Gary, I did lighten the middle mountains, but somehow managed to ignore those on the far right. May 8th
66 May 22 Reply Thank you Jack, I wish I could explain why I did not take the picture from the middle of the road. My husband often reprimands me for doing that on much busier roads. Posted: 05/08/2022 15:20:27 May 8th
66 May 22 Reply Thanks Henry, I agree that the sky may be too dark and chruchy for the image. May 8th
66 May 22 Reply I appreciate the comment on the sky and will take note next time. No I did not step into the road on this one! May 8th
66 May 22 Reply Thanks Palli May 8th
