24 Nov 23 Comment I agree with Frank's crop, which really pops the bee on the flower. Nov 17th
24 Nov 23 Reply This was shot in my studio, so there was no "Natural" background. Nov 17th
24 Nov 23 Comment We have one of these plants in our yard. It's amazing hardy despite the winters here. You did a great job with your treatment of the flower and the background. Nov 17th
24 Nov 23 Comment Frank had he right finish for your image. Great capture! Nov 17th
24 Nov 23 Comment Cool display, Bev. I found the reds a bit over-saturated, but otherwise like the range of bright colors. Nov 17th

53 Nov 23 Comment Great scene - very peaceful indeed. I agree with Robbin about the tractor seat, so used GF to remove it. Thoughts? Nov 17th
53 Nov 23 Comment Lovely scene. I agree with Robbin about the crop. I also think some targeted dodging and burning will add some subtle dimensionality to the image. Thoughts? Nov 17th
53 Nov 23 Comment Fun yard display. I think it needs some sharpening of the lighted items and some emphasis on the red skeleton in the tree. Thoughts? Nov 17th
53 Nov 23 Comment I'm jealous of your opportunity. Don't think I'll ever get to see this live. Tweaked your image to sharpen a bit and raise the shows slightly. Thoughts? Nov 17th
53 Nov 23 Comment Fun moment captured here, Rusty. This is quintessential kitty for sure.

I agree with Robbin about the upper left corner and feel the kitty needs a bit of sharpening. I also did some enhancing of the eyes as that's so important in an animal image. Thoughts?		 Nov 17th
53 Nov 23 Reply So you think I should have had the back part of the flower a little soft? Nov 17th

95 Nov 23 Reply My phone has a built-in macro camera actually. Nov 25th
95 Nov 23 Comment That really pops! I think it could use just a touch of sharpening. Thoughts? Nov 17th
95 Nov 23 Comment Good result after cropping. Focus is tight and colors work for me. Nov 17th
95 Nov 23 Comment You're on your way to being a stacking pro. We just need to get you to that magical 1:1 focus. Good job. Nov 17th
95 Nov 23 Comment Great stack - the focus is good throughout. For me, it's a little flat, which might have been worse if not for the colored lighting. Had a go at adding some dodging and burning to bring out more dimensionality. Thoughts? Nov 17th
95 Nov 23 Comment Lovely range of colors in one leaf. I feel it could use a bit of sharpening. Thoughts?

I tried a wide variety of mono treatments and feel the colors are essential for this image.		 Nov 17th
