13 Nov 22 Comment What a wonderful shot. It really captures the feel of a summer day. I love the contrast of the yellow foreground and the blue negative space of the sky. Nov 21st
13 Nov 22 Comment This is a great image from Group 13's expert on leading lines. The contrails and the bridge really give you a good sense of travel. And I like the way you kept the non-cloud part of the image as small as you did. Nov 21st
13 Nov 22 Comment That is the kind of sky that you will want to add to your sky collection in Photoshop.
There is something very calming about it and I love that big white cloud is sticking into the blue area which really helps to define it. My only suggestion concerns what looks like a circle that is 2/3 of the way to the left and 2/3 of the way up from the bottom in the blue sky. The circle is only slightly darker than the rest of the blue. My suggestion would be to Contrast Aware Remove tool in Lightroom to eliminate it.		 Nov 21st
13 Nov 22 Comment Beautiful clouds and the cityscape makes a nice reference point. The only suggestion I have would be to make the cityscape completely black to make it a silhouette. Nov 21st
13 Nov 22 Comment Very nice. Great composition and beautiful lighting. Nov 21st
13 Nov 22 Comment I have two suggestions. I don't have any clue as to what the white line on the bottom left side is so I would remove it using the Content Aware Remove tool in the latest version of Lightroom. Second, I would apply one of the new noise reduction programs. In this case I used ON1 NoNoise AI 2022 using the original algorithm. The default algorithm didn't smooth out the background for some reason. I have found that ON1 NoNoise AI and the equivalent Topaz programs to be incredibly powerful tools for cleaning up photos. Nov 21st
