73 Sep 21 Comment A great image Dave. It's good when a plan comes together, and to sell three copies is three bonuses. Yes for impact. Yes for colours. And does it tell a story? You bet it does. Congratulations. Sep 19th
73 Sep 21 Comment A great image Janos. As mentioned by Sherry and Carol, the lake provides a great sense of depth, but so do your use of foreground and background elements. Well done. Sep 19th
73 Sep 21 Comment An image with great depth Peter. The use of colours and lighting is outstanding, as is the overall composition. Congratulations on a wonderful image Peter. Sep 19th
73 Sep 21 Comment A great image Sherry. Good depth, sharpness and colours. Your construction and use of the available elements have produced a very strong image. Sep 19th
73 Sep 21 Comment Yes Carol, you have definitely presented us with a tranquil image. I'm not overly concerned about the softness in the background. Just out of interest, I wouldn't mind seeing an image taken from a lower viewpoint (if possible) and at a slower shutter speed, to soften the water surface. Sep 19th
73 Sep 21 Reply Thanks for your comments. Here's the colour original for you Sherry. I've had a love affair with infra red since I saw a presentation at a camera club about 15 years ago. The presenter said it is important to look at the "ingredients" of an infra red landscape at the time of capture. A blue sky comes out black, white clouds loose definition and texture, pale green foliage comes out white (not the usual tones of grey) and some appropriate object should provide a possible point of interest. Hence when I saw this landscape, I was also looking through infra red eyes. It might not be for everyone, but it's different. Earlier this year, before our lock down I was able to get a dslr body converted for infra red, rather than trying my best in photoshop as I did with this photo. So I hope to get out and try some more in the near future. Sep 14th

76 Sep 21 Reply Thanks Trey. I was deciding what to do about that line, but decided to leave it in. Sep 19th
76 Sep 21 Reply Thanks Jay. It's always fun photographing a bonfire. As you would be aware, the flames really are alive and constantly dancing. Sep 19th
76 Sep 21 Reply Thank you Henriette. I enjoy our bonfire nights and the chance I get to photograph some things we don't normally see. Sep 19th
76 Sep 21 Comment I'm thrilled that two of our lady members enjoy presenting us with floral images that are so different from each other. The delicacy of this one Henriette is wonderful. Your construction of the elements, use of tones, finished by your processing and presentation are first rate. A wonderful image Henriette, congratulations. Sep 19th
76 Sep 21 Comment Another outstanding image Heidi, as you produce so consistently. I have nothing to add that has not been said by the others already. This one definitely deserves to be shared with a wider audience Heidi. Congratulations. Sep 19th
76 Sep 21 Comment This is a great image Sanford and I love it just the way you have chosen to present it to us. You have presented an image with great depth, story and sense of place. It's always rewarding to go on a trip like this and come back with good results. Well done and congratulations. Sep 19th
76 Sep 21 Comment Another great image from your theatre images. Very well done Sophie. As a b&w image it is very strong, but I also like the colour version as well. As we all know, to end up with a good end image, it all begins with a good image at the time of capture. Your composition and capture of the original image, given the action and possible changing of light is very good. Your processing and presentation is first rate. Congratulations on a very strong image. Sep 19th
76 Sep 21 Comment Congratulations on an excellent image Trey, or as you say Kudos!!! I feel your original image shows the construction and details of the underside of the walkway in its true nature, purposefully designed and built, but without any aesthetic consideration. Muted colours and bland tones. However, your conversion to B&W and processing has really brought out the grungy character of this small location. To me, the original speaks to me of the whimsical wizard of oz. Your final screams to me of star wars. And as the others have already said, so much for the eye to roam around and see. Very well done indeed. Sep 15th
76 Sep 21 Comment An excellent image Jay. You set out with a plan, made great use of the elements you wanted they way they were presented to you, and the end result is this image that ticks all the boxes you wanted ticked. It's always good when a plan comes to completion. I'm glad you are venturing into the world of black and white. As you progress down this path your image making will improve greatly, from pre-conceiving an idea through capture, processing to presentation. B&W images become timeless, just look at Ansel Adams and Eugene Atget, two of my heroes. Draw inspiration from them and any others you come across. I really look forward to seeing what you produce in the future. Sep 15th
