11 Feb 23 Comment Wow! What a wonderful image. Great interest. Great composition. Sharp. Much more interesting than the original. I have no suggestions. Feb 8th
11 Feb 23 Comment A very unusual image but to me it seems to lack a sense of direction and is somewhat flat. So in my revision I flipped the image horizontally and now like the way the image seems to flow from bottom left to top right. I then brightened the ropes but not the background. I also eliminated the black spot on one of the ropes. Feb 8th
11 Feb 23 Reply Henry, many thanks. Feb 8th
11 Feb 23 Comment A wonderful image photographed at a precise moment. However, I am bothered by the large white object at the bottom of the image. So I cloned parts of the clothing to bring the garment down to cover the white object. I also cloned out some dark spots in the background. And, I also brightened the face and also the overall image. Feb 8th
11 Feb 23 Comment Wonderful shot. Only minor suggestion would be to reduce noise. Feb 7th
11 Feb 23 Comment A wonderful image and a great conversion from the original. I like Henry's suggestion to flip horizontally and in my revision I also lightened and blurred the background. Feb 7th

18 Feb 23 Comment Another wonderful conversion. So much better than the original. I have no suggestions. Feb 8th
18 Feb 23 Comment I love your creation, just wonderful. The subject is so bright with a great feeling of motion. And, I had no idea that the very negative background could become such a great and integral part of your image. I have no suggestions. Thanks for sharing. Feb 8th

78 Feb 23 Comment Very nice image and great conversion from the original. In my revision I adjusted only the contrast and not the saturation. Feb 7th
78 Feb 23 Comment A very nice sharp image with very nice composition. My only suggestion is to brighten the center of the orchid. Feb 7th
78 Feb 23 Comment I agree with Sunil's suggestions - one catch light and a little darker on the right side. And, I wonder how the image would look if the background was not so dark - to make the hair stand out more. Great shot, great conversion. Feb 7th
78 Feb 23 Comment To me it seems that there are two images - the road and the sky. And, again to me, it does not seem that they go together very well. So in my revision I cropped out the sky and some of the left side. And, it seems that the trees at the end of the road are slanting to the right so I straightened them and then I brightened the image. Feb 7th
78 Feb 23 Comment Very interesting. Very creative. I would not change anything. Great shot! Feb 7th
78 Feb 23 Reply Thanks for the suggestion. I've toned my revised image with a sepia color. Feb 7th
78 Feb 23 Reply Thanks for the suggestion. I agree that the object to the left of the shack is a distraction. So it took quite a while but I did remove it and replace it with a tree. The resulting image looks much better. Feb 7th
78 Feb 23 Reply Sunil, thanks for the suggestion. Attached is my mono version in which I also removed the sign (or whatever it was) from the left side of the shack. Feb 7th
78 Feb 23 Comment I think your conversion is wonderful. The subject is sharp and the slightly blurred background enhances the subject. My suggestion is a crop that is not so tight to give more of a feeling of the environment and I feel it improves the composition. Also, I prefer to have the tree not so slanting as in revision. Feb 7th
78 Feb 23 Reply Mitch my understanding is that RAW image files contain unprocessed data from the camera's sensor whereas a JPEG image is created by compressing and discarding some of the original RAW data. Thus, a RAW file will contain up to six times more pixels than a JPEG file. A JPEG file is fine for snapshots and I believe news photographers shoot in JPEG. But, if you shoot in RAW you will have the maximum number of pixels available for processing your images. Feb 3rd
