Thanks much Stan. I appreciate your very helpful comments. For sure I will review my images again and see if I have one without the intersection.

Hi Marcela, you might also want to experiment with flash for macro photography...see link below

Hi,
Thanks Marcela, Barbara and Marian for your very kind comments. I was lucky and thrilled to be at the Arch on a relatively haze free morning!

Understood Marcela and you did a great job of disguising the background....Also just for fun you might want to consider placing a piece of poster board <gray? white? black?>behind the flower...and see if this has the desired effect of wiping out the texture but allowing you to shoot at f5.6 or f8. |

Hi Barbara,
A well thought out image! I like the way you framed the house on the far shore & used sky replacement to correct what I assume was a bland sky.
I have two things for your consideration: 1. `punching' up the foliage in PS or Nik Studio to see how that works and 2. seeing if you can eliminate (by cropping? patch or clone tool?) the structure to the right of the house near the center of the image. The second structure drew my eye away from the rest of the image.

Hi Marian,
The colors and composition of this image are great. Raindrops are often tough to capture well and I appreciate your effort.
The focus on the flower however seems a bit soft although the rain drops are sharper...This could be for a variety of reasons including even the slightest movement of the poppy and/ or lack of depth of field in the close up (more likely the latter). I own the same macro lens & find it sharpest at f 5.6 or f8. Shooting at one of those apertures could give you more depth of field and only increase your ISO to about 400.

Hi Marcela,
A wonderful photo--the color and attention to detail are great.My only question is why did you shoot at f4?...perhaps f8 might have yielded an even sharper series of images for focus stacking...and at the same shutter speed it probably would only have bumped your ISO to about 1200.

Hi Stan,
A wonderfully composed golden hour image! I like the way the sand on the shore draws you into the water and then moves your eye to the sky and the rocks. I also like that you included people on the rocks to show scale.

Hi Harriet,
Nice job! I like the way you cropped and isolated `Elaine' in the final version. The colors are good and the eyes are sharp. I also like the way the neck fur stands out. My only suggestion would be to see if you could open the shadow a bit on the right side of the face.

Hi John,
A very well seen image! I like the way you caught the fellow lounging on the seawall with the symmetry of his hands and arms on the fence.My only suggestion would be to perhaps crop out what appears to be a piece of land<?> to the right of the `don't feed the seagulls' poster.
