50 Nov 21 Reply Hey, thank you. Nov 24th
50 Nov 21 Comment This image goes against my grain with an experiment into the Orton Effect in Luminar AI. I have always been a sharpness first person. Its called the Orton Glow or Orton filter. I may have gone a little far and wanted to see your reaction. Thanks for the feedback. Nov 20th
50 Nov 21 Comment Excellent environmental portrait. To my eye the cyan works very well. It brings out even more feeling in the subjects eyes. ps., great choice of camera and lens. Nov 19th
50 Nov 21 Comment This image has everything. It is so interesting and tells the story of farming and harvest of the hay. Chiaroscuro is exceptional. Yep, the sky is perfect. A prize winner. Nov 10th
50 Nov 21 Comment Good eye and great work. It tells a story complete with emotion and feeling. I feel your BW rendition is excellent with no suggestions needed. Nov 10th
50 Nov 21 Comment Your ISO is not too high. In my view the exposure is fine and you could have gone higher. Image is sharp with good quality. I took your original in to Luminar AI to make the BW and darkened the sky. Tried to make the composition a little more interesting. I thought the crop a little tight. Added a vignette to bring the eye into the center. Nov 10th
50 Nov 21 Comment The diagonal fence coupled with the horizontal fencing is a little distracting in my view. So, I took your original to Luminar AI and made a black and white square image. Dodged the eye and the mouth to squeeze more detail and added vignetting in order to soften the light gray sky. It looks like your camera automatically expoosed to include the bright sky. Nov 10th

92 Nov 21 Comment Stephen nailed it. No way could I add anything better. Nov 10th
92 Nov 21 Comment Making it monochrome removes the greenish cast. What do you think of making it BW? So, I coiuldn't just stop there so I cropped it and straightened the vertical lines to make the perspective normal. Made a couple of color to BW adjustments just to my taste and added a little vignetting. Done in Luminar AI. Nov 10th
92 Nov 21 Comment For me the story is the people. So, I took it into Luminar AI and simply made it into landscape format and geve it a little vignetter. Oh, yes, jazzed up the color for more impact. Nov 10th
