I also agree that you captured a lovely image and framed it well. Since it appears that the source of light is coming from in front of the woman (as evidenced by the light on her dress and the ground), you might consider adding just a touch of light to the woman's face to draw the eye to it. |

For the most part, the composition works for me. However, I would have liked to see a bit more room on the right side of the tree and a bit more of the foreground.
I do like the vibrant colors. To my eye it does seem very magenta. You might want to consider changing the hue of the blues to a more bluish and less magenta tone.

I agree with Jim about tightening our vision for the image before taking the image. However, I really do like your selection of the three tulips. I like the height variation.
Since you have already done such serious editing to this image, you might want to consider some of the techniques for editing/creating the best light for an image such as the Briscoe light technique. I have not yet used any of this techniques, but I may someday.

Jim,
I really resonate with your response. Sometimes, or most of the time, less is better. Sometimes we need to edit in our head before we even take the picture.

I know there are things that could be better, but I'm impressed with the clarity and depth of field that you managed to achieve.
I have been predominantly a landscape photographer, but I'm recently branching out into birds and moving subjects. Landscapes don't move. I have yet to take a shot that is not so blurry it is unusable!
You mentioned that you were concerned about the whites being blown out. Not being experienced with bird photography, is it possible to do a multiple exposure (most cameras now do that)taking 3 shots at different exposures? Probably not possible with moving subjects.
I agree with your color change of the background. I know with animal photography getting light in the eye is a pretty important factor. I'm wondering if maybe you could lighten the eyes of the prominent birds?

Playing with photographing the Milky Way...how fun. You might consider cropping your image. In my opinion, it would have more visual impact if a portion of the sky was cropped out.
The lower third of the image seems out of focus to me. The few times that I attempted night photography, I needed to combine two images. I focused one image for the land taken before dark. The second image taken late at night was focused at infinity for the sky.
Or is the blurriness due to the smoke? |
