David, I've been traveling in the Southwest, seeing Indian ruins in New Mexico and Big Bend National Park in Texas. Sorry I'm late to the party.
I like the composition of the photo, and what you and the others have done with it. This is one of those photos that brings out the artistic abilities of the group.
I lighten up the shore line to give more definition to the coast, and darken some of the clouds to give a more depth to the photo. I also lighten the lighthouse to pull the viewers eye toward it. I liked the mood of the storm.
Changed the dimensions to 16 x 9

Hattie, I'm conflicted about this photo. Not sure what I'm supposed to see. I was drawn to the blue lights and the windows and finally to the tower, but couldn't decide where you wanted me to go. Liked the colors.

I really liked this photo. I edited out the building on the right, removed the post on the left and then slightly darken the building on the right, that was competing with the building just left of center. I brighten up that building and then toned down the reflection, except just in in front of the building. I tried to get a focus point in the photo, which is the forth building from the left.
I felt they was no central focal point for the viewer to be lead into the photo.

Michael, you had everything working for you in this photo. The lines of the mountains and the clouds pull the viewers eye into the photo. I really liked the way you used the tree line to anchor the photo. Great shot and nicely done panoramic |

Bill, I hope you enjoyed the trip. This is a nice photo of the buildings; I agree the building are leaning. Perhaps if you had stepped backwards ten feet or so you could have gotten the buildings and more space around them, especially the sky. I believe Hattie's modifications brought out the colors and straighten the buildings. Your photo shows the character of the nation. Nicely done.

Le, I liked this photo of the church, but….always the but, there are lots of distractions from the church. I cropped the photo to a square and then used Transform, Distort to straighten the corners. I believe, this causes the viewer to focus on the building.

Wanda, I like your suggestions. Will try them in the future. If you ever are near the Wind Caves I would suggest you take the tour. Your iPhone or similar phone will take decent photos. Plus, it's just a great and unusal cave. |

Wanda, I was there from 10am to 1pm. All photo were taken in the cave with various light bulbs. It was a task, but well worth it. |

Gary, I'll have to remember to do various adjustments to see what they do to bring out the depth of the photo. Good Suggestion! |

I enjoyed what you did with this photo. Goes to show what you can do to make a regular photo into an interesting photo. It's a dreamscape.

This is a very nice subtle peaceful photo. Liked the way tree leaves with spring leaves pull the viewers into the photo. I agree with Gary that removing the dead branch helped, by removing an obstruction. Wanda, you do have a knack for great compositions;

Paul, this photo brings out the feeling of actually being on board a ship sailing between the mountains and in the passage. I liked the clouds and the wake of the the boat which leads the viewers eye to the passage, which when combined together bring the feeling of the weather that's normal in the area. I little faster speed might have solved the blurring issue. I've been on that cruise and your photo brings back great times going to Alaska |

Don, I don't have anything to add to what Wanda and Gary have said. Noise is always a problem, and I'm never sure I've eliminated it. Good Luck |

Ray, I enjoy this photo, very peaceful. Unlike Gary, I liked the shadow on the arm. It was the first place my eye went to, and then I liked the rest, Sorry Gary! I also, liked the detail and the colors of the plants. Well done.

Gary, sorry I'm late, been traveling the Southwest looking at Indian ruins and shooting photos in Big Bend National Park. Having a great time.
I really like what you have done with this building. It's shows what can be done with HDR. Great detail and the red doors draws the viewers eye directly to where you want the viewer to go. From there it's a pleasure to walk around the photo, very nicely done. The pavers and the grass brings out the character of the image. I might have removed the wires on the left side as I don't believe they add to overall photo. All-in-All very nicely done.
