34 Aug 25 Comment Hi Peter. Thanks for your nice comments. Aug 27th
34 Aug 25 Reply I normally used Silver efex pro from NIK Collection to convert Color to BW. Aug 23rd
34 Aug 25 Comment Hi Jan. I like the concept. To me. It would be stronger it the final touch is soft and dreamy. Aug 20th
34 Aug 25 Comment Imaginative. Nice work Steve. Aug 20th
34 Aug 25 Comment Hi Patrick. I have the same impression as Jan mentioned. My first impression was it is part of anatomical. Roy Killen my PSA mentor wrote an interesting article about "Why convert images to monochrome?".

70 Aug 25 Reply Hi Kirk. Thanks for your nice comments. This is a good candidate for Landscape Monochrome. Aug 27th
70 Aug 25 Reply Hi Geoff. Thanks for your good words. Aug 27th
70 Aug 25 Reply Agree. Monochrome sometimes works better than color. Especial when color distract the beauty of our texture. I learned it from Roy Killen. Australian photographer my Senior Mentor in PSA. https://belmont16s.myphotoclub.com.au/wp-content/uploads/sites/27/2016/05/Basic-monochrome-2016.compressed.pdf Aug 23rd
70 Aug 25 Reply Pierre. I like your words. It did not anything to the main topic. This is a great learning to me. Aug 23rd
70 Aug 25 Reply Pierre. Thanks for your comments. Aug 23rd
70 Aug 25 Comment Hi Kirk. It took me a while to consider what is your subject here. I agree with you this mountain with sandia color is really beautiful. If this would be the subject. The tree on the right is a bit too big and I would remove the trees of the left. I might want to de-saturate the sky a bit to make the mountain more outstanding. Aug 20th
70 Aug 25 Comment Hi Kathryn. It's hard to believe you shot using cellphone. The fine detail of the protruding bush with sunset sky on the right is just excellent to me. You guide our eyes from right to left with gradual lighting. It is indeed remarkable. You purposely include part of pine tree on the left make a complete story to the whole scene. It makes me say. Wow. It's a perfect mood and tonality. Aug 20th
70 Aug 25 Comment Hi Scott. Welcome to the club. What a wonderful premier. I love to see sharp edges of the trees and sky. The composition is well balance to me. My only suggestion would be to lightened the left foreground and create a bit of partial light like the one on the right foreground. Aug 20th
70 Aug 25 Comment Hi Geoff. It's a wonderful and rare scenery. I wonder you capture using drone or you fly? Is it SOOC (straight out of camera)? You could always de-haze it and increase the clarity and texture to make it more dramatic. Aug 20th
70 Aug 25 Comment Hi Pierre. I always like night cityscape with light reflection. The dark side on the bottom left keep pulling my eyes away from the beautiful reflection. I hope you don't mind my crop as follow. Aug 20th

90 Aug 25 Reply My camera setting was 1/2500 sec at f/6.3, ISO 1250. I used Topaz AI for noise reduction and sharpening. Mild sharpening is applied partially only to certain area. Texture and Clarity was set to almost zero to smooth out the background. Aug 27th
90 Aug 25 Comment Hi Janet. What an awesome shot. I really appreciate your idea to have your daughter holding her black tee-shirt as a background. It works real well to me. It make the whole seen pop and enjoyable. Additional flare makes it more dimensional. Good job Janet. Aug 20th
90 Aug 25 Comment Hi Howard. I like his expression. I know you must have been waiting for a while to get him (or her?) in this kind of position. I like your choice of f8 and the background log look soft and blurry. I love soft fur. It's more of a personal preference. I wonder if you can see the difference my editing. I have made a mild for softening using luminosity mask. Aug 20th
90 Aug 25 Comment Hi Ginny. You have a good eye. You spot this flower sets from a big tree. Wonderful shots. Aug 20th
90 Aug 25 Reply Hi Janet. Thanks for your good words. I agree with you the yellow flower attract to much attention to the viewer eyes. I should have tone down a bit. Aug 5th
90 Aug 25 Reply Hi Ginny. Thanks for your comments. Aug 5th
