57 Apr 20 Comment Hi Andrew, the denim was a very appropriate background for this image of an old transistor radio. You achieved your goals with this image. I also like your diagonal composition, with the cover on the upper left at a slightly different angle adding interest. Apr 8th
57 Apr 20 Comment Hi Marcela, your sunflower is beautifully in focus - I can clearly see and enjoy the pattern of the seeds.
I like the simplicity the angle you have chosen gives to the shot, with the yellow sunflower against the blue sky.		 Apr 8th
57 Apr 20 Comment Hi Nelson, I like your colour grade on this. It gives it a real 'market' feel. Your slight vignette is well-chosen. Apr 8th
57 Apr 20 Comment Hi Cindy. Your colours are lovely and the light perfect. You have captured the butterfly in an interesting pose. Beautiful image. Apr 8th
57 Apr 20 Comment Hi Jessica. I love the simplicity of the two main flowers, with the others slightly out of focus.
I too would bring the background highlights down, so we can focus more clearly on the beautiful subject. It makes me long for Spring!		 Apr 8th

77 Apr 20 Reply Haha! Love it :) Apr 11th
77 Apr 20 Comment Wow! What an amazing image capture. I agree with your choice to desaturate everything, remove the tourists and let us focus on the hard colour of the zombie in the front.
I don't know if it's just my computer, but I see a slight greenish tinge at the top of the front zombie's head. If it is indeed there and not just my screen, my suggestion would be to also desaturate that.
A fun and interesting image!		 Apr 8th
77 Apr 20 Comment Hi Cecilia, I like your edited image. Also, I do like your black and white treatment of the tree.
Thank you everyone for the discussion on PSD vs TIFF vs JPG. External printers always ask for JPG, as you said Georgianne.
I always ensure I don't 'save as' when converting to JPG. I always export the file, as I have more control over embedding colour space, etc. It gives me a much better result.
I will, however, talk to the printer about whether he would accept TIFF files. I will also read Kelby's article.		 Apr 8th
77 Apr 20 Comment Hi Connie, I like the way you have treated this image - you've done a great job. I agree with all the above comments - we are all thinking along a similar vein.
I also like your border - it really helps keep my eye in the image.		 Apr 8th
77 Apr 20 Comment Hi Witta, this is a very interesting image and I love the colours. I have also been playing with textures, and you have inspired me!

I quite like the bubbles. In looking at your final image, I wonder what would happen if you masked the bubbles just from the reds in the centre. It might bring a more 3-dimensional effect, with the centre emerging upward.		 Apr 8th
77 Apr 20 Comment Hi Georgianne. I really, really love this image - I keep coming back to it.
I wouldn't change much at all. Especially if you intend to brighten the door, the fence post may just need to be darkened down a little.		 Apr 8th
77 Apr 20 Reply Thanks Cecilia. I agree - the bricks need a more gritty texture. I'll have a play and see what works :) Apr 8th
77 Apr 20 Reply Thanks Bunny. I think you and Georgianne are right - lightening the woman's face and hands would help the story. Apr 8th
77 Apr 20 Reply Hi Witta - thanks for your suggestions. I hadn't thought about using the liquify tool - I will have a play! Apr 8th
77 Apr 20 Reply Thanks Georgianne for your suggestion - I will try that :) Apr 8th
