37 Oct 22 Comment Not beautiful and an image most would have overlooked. But It does look like a dance and is well captured. Yes, the brown leaf seems to sadly hug the center. Oct 23rd
37 Oct 22 Comment Wonderful hight of action capture! Good, crisp detail on both horse and rider. Elegant and powerful. Oct 23rd
37 Oct 22 Comment Cute formation. I agree with cropping the sky. Oct 23rd
37 Oct 22 Comment I agree, Lee Ann, with the comments above that you have a strong image of these mysterious, abruptly ending tracks which can be made even stronger. Oct 23rd
37 Oct 22 Reply Thanks, Howard. I think colors can look brighter on rainy days, but I had already darkened it. Maybe it needs more. Possibly the cloisters are more recent than the main basilica itself. Oct 18th
37 Oct 22 Reply Thank you, Lee Ann, for your input. My earlier reply disappeared.
What I wanted to show was that I was standing under shelter across the way, out of rain, so I used the column and the white streaks, rain pouring down off the roof on my right, to frame the image. 		Oct 10th
37 Oct 22 Reply Thank you, Bob. I've done that only once using the only sky I found there. I can explore to look for more. But, as a mater of fact, this sky was white and I darkened it to make it match all the rain in the scene. As in the title, the image is all about the rainy day. I guess I could have looked for some storm clouds for a replacement. I know there's even a way to put my own skies into that program along with the ones provided. Oct 10th
37 Oct 22 Reply The white lines are raindrops. There was no blue in that rainy sky. Oct 10th

64 Oct 22 Comment I'm glad you incorporated the suggestions above. I prefer both of your uncropped versions to the cropped one. They invite my eye to enter the structure through the door or window. Oct 24th
64 Oct 22 Comment A beautiful scene with beautiful, detailed architecture. The very black sky accentuates the sepia-toned architecture. Good range of shades, with detail visible in the dark beyond the colonnades. A site to seek out if we get to Paris again. Oct 23rd
64 Oct 22 Comment This is reminiscent of a Cartier-Breson overhead view of a cyclist. You captured your rider in a perfect position into the shadow, and his path aligns with the shadow's angles. I like your crop and John's, too. Oct 23rd
64 Oct 22 Comment A beautiful image with the building and reflection seeming to float among the clouds. I, too, know noting about infrared. I like the final result but prefer the stronger crescent formations more visible in the colored versions' foliage. Could you recapture those in the final? Oct 23rd
64 Oct 22 Reply I think you're right, Chris about, the rope. Probably not too difficult to eliminate that, but then, of course, it no longer qualifies for Travel. I agree, too, about cropping the half arches.

64 Oct 22 Reply You're right Don. This is quite limited. When I find images of the doge's palace on line, they stress the beautiful architecture of the entire building. Don't know why I shot just a vertical of this limited area. Next time I'm there I'll do a horizontal and show you more. Oct 10th
