2 Mar 22 Reply The twin-trunked tree is now cloned out. Mar 20th
2 Mar 22 Reply Thanks for great observation; a good argument for cloning it out - difficult but possible I think. Mar 13th
2 Mar 22 Reply Thanks for the correction - I should know better since I began riding at about age 4. Mar 10th
2 Mar 22 Reply Not sure, just some parts of the background maybe - could be best as is? Mar 10th
2 Mar 22 Reply Here it is with the brightened barn. Mar 8th
2 Mar 22 Reply I used photoshop HSL sliders to selectively brighten the red barn to put more light in the scene - then used Silvereffex Pro and the fine art process preset, then lowered the midtones. Mar 8th
2 Mar 22 Comment Great capture of a meaningful statement. There is more than one contributing element (the hand, wrist, hair, eyes, mask, necklace and tee-shirt letters). The original has slightly too much with dilution of the drama. Mar 8th
2 Mar 22 Comment The lady is making such a strong and meaningful statement - congrats on making it all come together so well. Mar 8th
2 Mar 22 Comment Thanks for the relevant and poignant message. The image conveys both sadness and hope in that the bees will re-pollinate. The background really works well - but could be a fraction too sharp. Mar 8th
2 Mar 22 Comment I find the original to be a very strong image perhaps because of the sharp bright flower with abundant negative space allowing it "to breathe". Your work in post has resulted in a different image but also striking, in part because of the effective blending in the background. Mar 8th
2 Mar 22 Comment That's an interesting POV of the three birds in harmony and enhanced by the diagonal. It is a nice original departure from the conventional one bird approach, and I think truer to birdlife. My late mother, based in England, was an artist who believed in showing interaction between birds, often differing in species. Mar 8th
2 Mar 22 Reply Thanks for the feedback - I think the dusky red could be changed a bit, and will give it a try.. Mar 8th
2 Mar 22 Reply Here is a quote from the lyric:
"Go right to the source and ask the horse.
He'll give you the answer that you'll endorse
He's always on a steady course.
Talk to Mister Ed!"		 Mar 8th
