Brian, this is an astoundingly beautiful image! Not only is it well composed, but the colors and especially the oval framing really make the story stand out as a work of art! Well done! |

Jan, I can certainly identify with that brain fog with respect to composits! Creative does not mean composting, though it often falls into that type of work. This is sort of impressionist art.
The light on the upper left does not bother me at all and it does balance off the other light. Personally, I would prefer just a little less texture and darkness, but I do enjoy what you did. |

Fran, this is really nice. What fun this must have been! I love the way you curved and faded the "moths" into the distance. The only comment I have is that, to me, the darkness at the left edge is a little too dark considering the intensity of the light on the moths. Also, the small moths on the lower left might be a little more blured to indicate their depth of field. Those are just minor suggestions. I love the cleverness of this image. |

It is with a sad heart that I must withdraw from our group. My physical situation makes it just too painful to sit at my computer and edit. Photography is not possible right now. Perhaps this will be successfully treated before the year is up. I do hope that, if that happens, I'll be able to return to this wonderful, creative group. I love you all, and really appreciate what you do. |

There is beauty in most things we experience, and you captured some in both of your images. However, the placement of the woman on the edge of the image in this composition is frustrating to me. She blends right into the table cloth and the multitude of tables fills perception, distracting from your story, in my opinion. Perhaps the story could be more impacting to me if she were in the table above her in the 2 dimensional picture. Also, if her dress was a different color, maybe red, she would stand out more as the subject of the story. |

I love this composite! It reminds me of a really good multiple exposure photograph. You did a really good job of sharpening the components and enhancing the colors.
What is "Redfield"? |

Thanks for all your comments and support over these years! I find that it is just too painful to sit at my computer long enough to edit photos, so for now, I have to withdraw from both of my PSA digital image groups. Hopefully, I can get my back fixed and return next year. Love you all and thanks again for all that you do here! |

Denise, your application of the smudge filter really made this image. I agree with the comments about cleaning up the image before processing and darkening the center of the rose. I would add that I prefer a wider crop with more black around the rose.
You did a really beautiful job with this lovely rose, especially given your shortage of time! |

Beautiful! I love the saturated colors of dusk. Your image accentuates that, to bring out the feeling of that time of day. The contrast accentuates the boat and its reflection. The crop is excellent, in my opinion.
It is not easy to capture an artistic image of cluttered fishing boats. You have done so, in my opinion. |

Michael, I love double exposure and you have really used it well here. It never occurred to me to use it on flowers. I've always used it on larger objects outdoors, like car parts, etc. Thanks for the inspiration.
My only suggestion would be to lighten the flower, perhaps with an Exposure adjustment layer and mask. |

Your flower made me smile. It is absolutely beautiful. I like the suggestion of giving the flower a little more room. My only suggestion would be to give the stamin a little more definition, perhaps with a Selective Color adjustment layer an a mask, to bring out its color. The adjustment layercould play with the black, yellow, and white sliders. That might alter the gentleness of the image though. |

Connie, your image is stunning to me. I love the lighting, but most of all, I love the story. Yes, the face of your husband is primary, but the image is a story, not a portrait. I loved looking around to see the implements involved in the story. As previously noted, you might remove that "black thing" lathe, but it too is part of the story and doesn't bother me one bit. |

Your image of the road runner is so very sharp. The pose is excellent (and fortunate!). I like the way you handled the background. As it is a portrait, I see no reason to worry that the background is dark. But I do like the effect of some of the original background showing through. |
