A nice image Tatu, I agree with Nelson, brightening it up would lift it considerably. |

A great use of line to guide our eyes from left to right and then out into the outside area. Just a couple of questions. Is the person sitting distant chair known to you? If so, how would she alter the image if she was sitting in the closer chair, being a little more prominent and looking out to the left? |

Congratulations Lauren, both on your image and your scramble up the hill. Good composition and depth. I would also like to see this one as a "normal" colour image. |

Colour i/r's always intrigue me Debbie. My initial thought was like Nelson's, maybe crop a little off the road and also the right to maintain the format. But then, hurricanes cause widespread damage so why not possibly keep the area as a whole? On this occasion, I fully agree that keeping the original sky is the way to go, both ethically and photographically, to keep some authenticity to the aftermath of the hurricane. |

Peter, a dear friend of mine down here says something like "an image is successful, if it causes viewers to pause, look and comment, rather than just walk by". Your image does cause discussion. Personally I don't mind the leaves as they add to the story, provide good depth as they are so close compared to the trees on the other side of the lake. A great image regardless of how you might want to process it further. |

A great image Gary. The pano format, the time of day, the processing and the presentation all work together to provide a great image of a well known iconic location. |

A great pano Dave. A night view of a famous american location as I would expect to see it, lights just stretching off for ever. |

Congratulations on a great image Sherry. While I acknowledge Butch's comments and alternate version, I still like the inclusion of the second mountain peak to the left. In my mind, it brings a further feeling of depth to the scene. It would even work well as a pano if you chose to loose up to two thirds of the sky above your main mountain peak. Just for something a little different, in addition to your image. |

Congratulations on a superb image Henriette. Like you, I'm not bothered by the bit of blue on the right, it tells me this is where the tree ends. But either version is fine. A great wildlife image either way. |

Another great image from your trip to Kenya Sophie. While I didn't initially see "that" impala head on the left, now that I do see it, I agree with the others that you should consider taking some of that edge off the image. There is nothing else of importance there, so no harm would be done to your image. Selective focusing does force us to concentrate on your zebras, while also noting that other species of animals also live side by side with each other. Your maintaining the colours is also very good. |

Drone images are always interesting, as they give us a very different viewpoint that we very rarely see. Good height without going stupidly high and providing good depth to the image. Great work Sanford. |

Congratulations on a great pano Trey. Everything you mentioned you were after in this scene, is visible to us as viewers. I'm always pleased to see when a photographer deliberately "shoots big", with a vision of their final desired image in mind. We can see that all things in this image are sharp so not knowing all the camera settings is not really important. |

Very well done Jay. To me, the story here is all about the colour of the lavender field. The purple, the green and the blue all work well together. The steam/smoke also tells us that just over the trees is civilization. Yes by all means, it can be "removed" or "cropped" no problem with either approach. I also think that if you prefer not to have it there in your image, just don't include that section at the time of capture. In an image like this one if you loose some lavender, trees and sky, there's still plenty left to tell the story. So, depending on what's outside the frame that we can't see, I would have also taken a few shots with my camera turned just a little. |

A great composite Gordon. All your chosen elements fit in nicely and you have ended up with a very strong image. I have nothing to add to further it other than congratulations. |

Thanks for your comments Trey, LR was the culprit for the stitching. My tripod was only very slightly raised when I shot these, I was down on my knees at the time. A few series were taken and this was my preferred as I wanted to include a touch of the shadows in the foreground. As you are well aware, having the camera set up in portrait format allows for good height to be included. |

Thanks for your comments Gordon. I used Lightroom to stitch the images together. For this exercise I was particularly careful to get everything right at the time of capture. While the trees may look a little off vertical, that's their actual rendition, but I do understand your point. Next time for sure. |
