36 Dec 22 Comment Thanks for your comment, Barbara. One of the advantages of a TS lens is that you can shift it up/down or sideways to enlarge the image with multi exposures. Dec 18th
36 Dec 22 Reply Thank you for your comment, Larry. Using a TS lens is a different type of photography. You have to slow down to get it set right and by doing so, you get into what I would call an artistic mode where every detail has to be checked to be as perfect as you can make it. Dec 18th
36 Dec 22 Comment Thank you for your comment, Adi. I use a hard masking technique that is rather complicated to explain here and a white brush. Dec 15th
36 Dec 22 Comment The atmosphere of a cold and foggy morning is well captured. I like the long shadows and the smoke from the chimney that blends in with the clouds. My only suggestion for improvement is to crop out the sky as I find it distracting the beautiful landscape. Dec 10th
36 Dec 22 Comment There is a calmness in this image that I like. The shutter speed is just long enough to make a blurry effect in the waterfall and still keep some texture. My only little comment is to desaturate the sharp green on the right side in order to make the colours more uniform. Some vignetting could give more attention to the waterfall. Dec 10th
36 Dec 22 Comment An interesting story and a very special image. The mixture of stars, clouds and the sun makes it almost unreal. To me, the sky and the reflections in the lake are the points of interest and I would therefore suggest desaturating the green areas, perhaps also darkening them slightly. Dec 10th
36 Dec 22 Comment The leading line from left to right gives some interest in the image, but it lacks engagement and atmosphere in my opinion. I think it would help to emphasise more on the bridge by darkening and desaturating the background and maybe also darkening the water. Dec 10th

74 Dec 22 Reply Thank you for your comment. Yes, I have done a lot of long exposure shots of scenes like this, and the people would disappear if the shutter speed is about 2 minutes or more, but the problem here is that there are people everywhere and I had to hold the camera overhead and I didn't carry a tripod with me. Dec 10th
74 Dec 22 Comment Here is what I meant, with a touch of rim light on the dark side. To me, the light source takes too much attention, so I toned it down to a beam. Dec 9th
74 Dec 22 Reply Thank you for your comment. Actually, I have one version with a light beam and one without. Dec 8th
74 Dec 22 Comment An interesting "portrait". I think a rim light all the way around would give a nice effect, i.e. a combination of yours and Don`s version.

You don't say anything about the lighting, but a spotlight from behind could also give an interesting effect.		 Dec 8th
74 Dec 22 Comment An interesting scene with the trees growing together, making a tunnel. My first impression was that there are too many details. By applying structure only to the trees closest to the road and darkening the edges, I think the image would appear more pleasing and mindful. Since you are so close to symmetry, I would suggest going back to the original composition and cropping slightly from the bottom, so the lines don't hit the corners directly. Dec 8th
74 Dec 22 Comment A fascinating "copy" of Edward Weston. I have planned to do something like this myself, but I have never done it. With all the curved shapes, there are a lot of possibilities to make shadows and light. If I shall try to give any proposals for improvement, it would be to lift the left side by putting something under. That would create a more 3-dimensional look and close the light gap underneath. I would also darken the table slightly. Dec 8th
