Thanks for your comments Jim. The blue sphere is in fact a tube. The participants slide down the tube into the water. They go completely under and I try to photograph them as they emerge from the very cold water. |

When I look at my version I think I have blurred it too much. If you don't like it blurred that's fine. One thing I would suggest is to clone out the sticker on the wind screen. |

Thanks Richard. My view on AI is that if I could edit the image by cloning, Content Aware Fill etc and I could get similar results but faster using AI then it is acceptable. However, if I am happy to put other artist/photographers work on my wall then to use AI for "Personal Use" is acceptable. |

I understand what you are saying Barbara and I still can't decide whether to keep her eyes opened or closed. See my response to Mark. |

Thanks Mark. I went back to my image and used Luminar Neo to enlarge her eyes. I then went to Photoshop Liquify to enlarge them even further and I am now happy with the result. I also made her eyes darker. I still can't decide whether I prefer her with her eyes closed. |

Someone is very proud of this car and it is well worth photographing. I started playing with your image before I read peoples comments which is always a mistake for me. I agree with Mark that they are better when not being in a museum. I also like what Richard has done. I darkened the background but didn't blur it but after seeing his I also blurred mine. I agree with Sophia regarding the blue chair. I would prefer none rather than the second one being a clone of the first. It does look like a clone. I think the car is a bit tight in the frame and my preference would be to give it a little more space. |

You have done an excellent job in bringing out the colours and detail in the image. I also like the dark vignette. Well done for seeing the potential of the original. |

I must remember when shooting moving insects that 1/400 sec exposure will freeze the body but show movement on the wings which I really like. I agree with Jim about cropping but I think he has taken it too tight. I also think a slight sharpening around the bee and its surrounding petals help. You have shown two different images but I prefer the processed one over the "original". |

As Pete says this is a very peaceful and beautiful scene. Unlike Richard I would prefer to keep the small tree on the right. However I do think the main trees are too central and I would crop a bit from the left. Once you notice that the clouds have been cloned it does irritate, I would revert back to the original for the sky on the right. |

What an interesting place and I am sure we all like to visit. I like mono and this image is good in mono but in this case I do prefer the colour version. I have played around with the original. What do you think? |

I have nothing to add to the comments already made but I thought I would try a different approach. I used Topaz Impressions and used Painterly then reduced the opacity. I then blurred and desaturated the background. |
