34 Jun 23 Comment Excellent creations. I like the combination between top and bottom. To me, it's complementary. I also like the frame. It works well in the composition.

34 Jun 23 Comment Hi Jan. I may be different than our friends here. I love how you show different color (the tower?) behind the trees that make it looks more dimensional. I also love how you place the cat, the purple and orange flowers around the steps to the chapel. I would not change anything. I just the love your original creation. Jun 24th
34 Jun 23 Comment Unique composite. I like how you combine the neon lights with human character in it. Jun 24th
34 Jun 23 Comment Hi Gunter. I really enjoy your creativity. It's far from being monotonic. I saw different style every month. So, I keep waiting what's coming next month. Good job Gunter. Jun 24th
34 Jun 23 Comment Hi Candy. Art is a matter of taste. I just love the way you create this composite. Composition, blending techniques and how you create a black frame around the image with outer part overlay. To me, you have done an awesome work. Jun 24th
34 Jun 23 Comment Your original 1 and original 2 make me busy reviewing these unique pictures. After all, you have successfully composed those elements into very nice composition. Job well done Steve. Jun 24th
34 Jun 23 Reply Hi Steve. Thanks for your comments and feedback. Jun 23rd
34 Jun 23 Reply Hi Mike. I feel so sorry to your friend comments. Photography is my hobby. To me, hobby is a pleasure. I followed a tutorial with very senior mentor. I don't mind feedback and critiques. But, he rejected my works several times and wanted me to redo and re-submit over and over again. Instead of getting pleasure. I felt stressful. Literally, I released my self from the sessions. Jun 23rd
34 Jun 23 Reply Hi Jan. Thanks for comments and suggestion. I put a bit of drop shadow. Indeed it is not obvious enough. Jun 23rd
34 Jun 23 Reply Hi Gunter. Thanks for your kind words. I appreciate it. Jun 23rd
34 Jun 23 Reply Hi Steve. Thanks for your comments and suggestions. I started to send a note to Indonesian post office here. Jun 23rd

70 Jun 23 Comment Hi Kirk. It's a wow place to me. I might spend hours taking pictures here. I like your shooting angle and perspective. I wonder what is the white sands that almost look like snow. Jun 23rd
70 Jun 23 Reply Thanks Terina. Jun 23rd

70 Jun 23 Reply Hi Kirk. Thanks for your constructive feedback. Jun 23rd
70 Jun 23 Comment Hi Geoff. I have been to this place and captured a lot of pictures. But none has been as strong as your picture. You have done a great job by setting graduated dark blue sky against bright yellow of the costal rocks and sand. Thanks for giving me these excellent editing examples. Jun 23rd
70 Jun 23 Comment Hi Terina. I just love the combination between smooth water waves and crispy rock formation. Perfect camera settings. I started to see a bit of white haze between transition of dark mountain on bright sky. Likely, this part has been subjected to heavy amount of sky editing (darkening). This is a simple issue to tackle. I would select the sky and clone the hazy part with the darker sky. Enjoy your editing. Jun 23rd
70 Jun 23 Comment Lively and colorful scene. I would light up the shadow a bit to get more radiant warm. Nice shot Pierre. Jun 23rd
70 Jun 23 Comment Hi Tami. Alaska is my dream place. You captured the mountain perfectly well. Indeed, you need additional element to add story. I wonder if you have another angles of shot to choose. This wing is a bit awkward to me. Jun 23rd

90 Jun 23 Comment Hi Jack. You asked which is better, color or BW?

Roy Killen (my senior mentor in PSA) gave me good reason why we need to convert color to BW. BW is needed when you want emphasize lines, tones, contrasts and textures. In many case, color would distract your images. Please refer to this link for more elaborate explanations and examples. https://belmont16s.myphotoclub.com.au/wp-content/uploads/sites/27/2016/05/Basic-monochrome-2016.compressed.pdf

90 Jun 23 Comment I love the bird action. Like LC reminder. This picture is a bit too small to evaluate.

I always export my images from LR - with different settings. In this case, it is set at 1024x768 (Max 1 MB) and put extension name 'Edit for PSA DDG'. This is to avoid sending too big or too small pictures for PSA.

90 Jun 23 Reply Hi Jack. Thanks for your interest. This is a plant. They called it Spoon-leaved Sundew (Drosera trinervia). It was in flower pot (12 inch diameter). See the image I send to Ginny. Posted: 06/24/2023 06:28:54 Jun 24th
90 Jun 23 Reply Hi LC. Thanks for your suggestions. I will do it for other images too. Posted: 06/24/2023 06:30:05 Jun 24th
90 Jun 23 Reply Thanks Dan. Jun 24th
