86 Sep 19 Reply There are some great lines in this image Janet, but not as good as the Road Not Taken. Thanks, I do love that poem.

....I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I-
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

86 Sep 19 Reply When you return and get settled, I would like to hear your thoughts on the conference if your willing to do so. I have considered going but never really understood what it's about.

This trip to Chicago was with a local group that was led by Chris Smith from Out Of Chicago. This particular location is in his book as I understand it. The funny part of this is 40 plus people had to nonchalantly wait for elevators to go up in this parking structure so we didn't get thrown out, There were people hanging out with cameras everywhere you looked.

Enjoy your trip and thanks for the comments.

86 Sep 19 Comment I like Margaret's idea for reducing the light on the right hand side. The different textures and shades really help in this image. Also the curved leaf helps lead my eye back to the frog.
I look forward to seeing more of this project.

86 Sep 19 Comment I wouldn't change anything, you did a good job editing and capturing it. I did try adding texture to see if it would help but I don't think so. Sep 12th
86 Sep 19 Comment This makes for a very interesting image. Good eye picking this out. At first I thought a square crop would work but as it turns out, I do prefer your crop. I downloaded the image and played with it in the Lightroom app. I cropped a little on the bottom and played with the color and texture. I like how the lines of the awning lead to the widows and the windows make frames. Sep 12th
86 Sep 19 Comment Congratulations on the ribbon. I had to go back and look at the image, I had forgotten what it looked like. This months image worked out well especially considering through an airplane window.
It looks like you are really getting the hang of editing in Snapseed. I am pretty sure that Snapseed doesn't have a dehaze slider but this image might be improved some with dehaze and texture in Lightroom.

86 Sep 19 Reply I have tried black and white, it does look good but I am partial to the yellow lights that are on both sides of the track. I will try some sepia versions, thanks for the suggestion. Sep 12th
86 Sep 19 Reply Thanks Belinda, I will work on the edits you mentioned. I hadn't noticed some of the corrections needed that you mentioned. Sep 12th
86 Sep 19 Comment I like what you did with the image. The final image may not be a realistic capture of the bridge but you used the original to create something that is all your own and it's well done. Altered reality is one of many things I need to work on. Sep 11th
