Hi Norm,
Thanks for your suggestion about eliminating the white flower--I see what you mean about the orange part now. I'll experiment with the red and blue flowers crossed, and I'll also experiment with reducing that orange color from the white flower.
Thanks,
Tracy |

Hi Carroll,
I rarely travel outside the US, so an image like this gives me a great "eye" into another region of the world. I really like the brighter colors in the fountains and the lower windows in the bottom part of the image contrasting with the sweeping towers upward, with the brighter whiter light in those upper windows. It creates a great sense of how impressive the building is. I don't have any suggestions other than to mention what Norm does about adjusting for the wide angle distortion. |

Hi Marcela,
I'm one of the ones who really likes bokeh, so the background is really pleasing to me. Maybe experiment by bringing out the whites a bit more (in LR or PS) to show the strands in the spiderweb a bit brighter? The sharp angles of the webbing would look even more interesting contrasted more highly against the smoother edges of the bokeh. I'm not a huge fan of spiders, but respect them immensely (and treat them kindly when I find them in the house)--so I really like your approach to capturing this little guy/gal from the "safety" of indoors! :-)

The historic context of the image is really interesting, and your image helps capture that story. And even if I hadn't learned the history behind it, the image has kind of a universal impact of historic loss or change. The stairway and the lighting in the background might hint at future opportunities--or simply create a mystery as to where the stairs lead and what happened to the window. The color of the image adds to the historic feeling, and the sweeping lines of the stairway and the upper edge of the broken glass keep my eye in the image. Really beautifully done! |

This is an intriguing shot! As Norm says, there is a lot to look at which creates interest, and I keep finding more things the longer I explore the image. The spring-like things which spread up from the lower floor are captivating--I can't help but wonder how they did that! Nicely exposed and great focus. Well done. |

What a beautiful bird! The composition is well placed, and the glowing colors of the feathers are beautiful. My only suggestion would be that the little top-knot thing on top of Pierre's head tends to get a little lost in the feathers behind it. Maybe lighten those a little to bring them out a bit more? Just something to try. Very lovely as is. |

A very nice composition! I like how the diagonal lines on the left edge lead in toward the center, which is where the brightest patch of green field is. The three rocks in the water on the right edge tend to do the same. And the interesting detail in the landscape, with the sunlight land and the borders of the fields is intriguing. I don't have suggestions for improvement, although using an ND filter as Norm suggested might have created a nice lighting for the water and sky. |
