50 Feb 22 Comment Cindy, you always find such interesting things to photograph. Great detail and interest in searching around the image. Technical aspects are perfect as is. Feb 24th
50 Feb 22 Comment Reflections really make this photo in my opinion. Agree with Cindy that the individual in back is distracting. I would darken the skaters uniforms in your conversion process. They need the contrast similar to the original.

50 Feb 22 Comment You certainly found the right post processing to bring out the detail probably close to as seen with your eye. Print it and hang it. Feb 24th
50 Feb 22 Comment A very interesting piece to explore for contrast and composition. I think you did the best compromise between contrast and detail. Feb 24th
50 Feb 22 Comment Great capture with sharpness, contrast and composition perfect. I love the fact you did all this at 1/40th - steady hand. I'm a Fujifilm shooter too. Feb 24th
50 Feb 22 Comment Taking your advice I opened the original in the latest Luminar Neo software and started over. There is a Powerline Removal tool and it is magic. Took all of 30 seconds to remove the light poles. And, Karl, I made the cars go away as well. This Luminar Neo is pretty amazing. That would have taken a whole lot more time in PS. Cindy, Brightened the foreground. There is a tool specifically for that. Did I make the sky too dark? Feb 14th
50 Feb 22 Reply Hi, thanks for the comments. OK i'll work on removing the light poles. Just so you know, I did not find them distracting. It's the old documentary photographer thing coming out, ha.

92 Feb 22 Reply While shooting this I thought the same thing about the shadows. This game is so fast. I'm going back next Sunday if the weather cooperates. Feb 17th
92 Feb 22 Comment Great street shooting. This has everything of interest. A very sharp and well composed image for sure. You might try making it monochrome and see what it looks like. Feb 17th
92 Feb 22 Comment Catching the action is not easy. You did great with a video frame capture. The other choice is set your camera on continuous and let it rip as fast as the camera will go. Good work with all the technical stuff. A fun image.

92 Feb 22 Comment Interesting image to see all the busses together. It is sharp and well exposed. Well Done. Too bad there are no passengers milling around which would make it even more interesting and, would tell a story. Feb 10th
92 Feb 22 Comment Lou, you did a great job of recovering an underexposed image. Good job. This is a great example of why to include the original. Good work. Don't change a thing.

92 Feb 22 Comment Dodgeball you try to hit another player. Handball is hitting the ball with your hand against a wall. That black spot is the ball going very very fast.
