Thanks. I kind of like it better also unless it were an extreme tilt--one that looks intentional. |

I believe it is a little better. I think the part that stands out as being out of focus is the white(yellow) in the center. I am not the one to tell you about sharpening, and maybe some of the others might be able to make some suggestion. I find that for an isolated area like that sometimes using the radial filter in Lightroom works using dehaze and clarity. I will be watching for other comments. |

I love the composition of your image and the added line border. I feel the color balance between the flower and the background is beautiful. My one suggestion would be to see if you can sharpen the very center since my eye keeps wanting to look at that. Nice shot! |

There is no doubt how my eyes are leading from the bottom with the wider section of smoke and narrowing to the top to the plane. I feel your color contrasts are right on! Nice shot. |

What a surprise to me. Before reading your description, my thought was that it was a broken Christmas light. I have no idea what a 3D backing sheet does, but I feel that your experiment worked well. I like how the center is surrounded by the small circle of colors and how you enhanced the lighting in the lower section. My eyes start there for the center of interest and then going around the entire image. My suggestion for its title: "Christmas Explosion" |

Jacqueline, I took your suggestion of cropping on left and do like this much better. |

I am impressed with your eye to be able to see the beauty to photograph. I feel your background is perfect, and I like the way you have enhanced the seed color for the focal point. Since my eye is drawn to the darker upper portion on the right, I would suggest cropping the upper portion about mid-way through the darker section. I think it will then give more emphasis to almost a shooting star appearance. If there is any way you can clone out the one wider white strand that shoots up from the center bottom, I feel it will isolate the main attraction better. That's picky, and I think it's a wonderful shot and edit! |

All in the eyes of the beholder, I like your second one better except perhaps the background and hair could have been left as you originally had it. In my opinion he still has that ruggedness without looking overdone. |

Thanks! It was a fun image to work with. Would like to have done the night tour, but this worked. |

Thank you Stephen for your comments and suggested edit. I see that your edit shows a slight soaring effect, which I like. Thanks! |

I feel that you have done so well in capturing the ruggedness of this gentleman. His eyes are looking right at me. Changing this to B&W, in my opinion, gives him that character you were seeking I believe it is sharp, even to the point of seeing that one hair sticking out the side of his face. I like the way you changed the background, and I would not have noticed the added on canvas if you hadn't said anything. I know that this high contrast style is used all the time, but I wonder what it would look like if the skin definition weren't quite as strong. Just curious to know if it would look more natural. I feel it is a great shot and wouldn't suggest changing it but just a tad. |
