34 Sep 25 Reply Hi Peter,
Thanks for your kind words. The inscription on the lower left is Chinese Stamp. They call it chop or seal as proof of the art authenticity. It's some sort like water mark. My Chinese name characters are there. You don't have to have Chinese name to make this kind of stamps. It's free on line.

34 Sep 25 Comment Hi Jan. I like to see you are experimenting. You always challenged your self. Not to get stuck with the same approach over and over again. I am always looking forward to what's your next post. Cheers. Sep 19th
34 Sep 25 Comment Hi Bob. Welcome to the club. I like how you created the sense of war. Massive light explosion and radiant red hue on the right. To me. This is just awesome. No complain. Good job Bob. Sep 19th
34 Sep 25 Comment Hi Peter. I love to see your fantasy. It reminds me one of my friends when we were kids. He loved to draw this kind of fantasy. How the hero kills his evilest enemies. Sep 17th
34 Sep 25 Reply Hi Bob. Welcome to the club. I agree with your comments. The Chinese character read from right to left. So does the bird. It should fly from right to left. Sep 17th
34 Sep 25 Reply Hi Jan. Thanks for comments and suggestions. Sep 17th

70 Sep 25 Reply Hi Kirk,
Thanks for your kind words.		 Sep 30th
70 Sep 25 Comment Hi Kirk. What an awesome scenery. I don't mind the red of the rock. It is just fine to my taste as I love vivid color. However, I saw some crushed shadows or clip. The areas that are totally black. I would normally light it up a bit from my RAW file. That's one of the reasons. Most of the time I use exposure bracket when shooting this kind of landscape.

70 Sep 25 Comment Hi Geoff. Nice color and nice tonality. I am glad to hear more about this image. Sep 19th
70 Sep 25 Reply I like the B/W version. Sep 19th
70 Sep 25 Comment Hi Scott. I love the composition with clear leading line. I agree with Pierre. I would tune down the saturation of yellow and green at the center and apply a bit of dreamy effect to match the mood of Spanish Mosh tonality. Sep 19th
70 Sep 25 Comment Hi Pierre. What a lovely sunset. I love the tonality and sharp edges of the trees. No complain. Sep 19th
70 Sep 25 Reply Hi Scott. Welcome to the club. I live in Indonesia but travel in the USA frequently because all my kids and grand kids live in US. Oregon was the only place I have visited in PNW. Thanks for your comments. Sep 19th
70 Sep 25 Reply Hi Pierre. Thanks for your comments and opinions. Fortunately, we have the same sense photographic aesthetic. Sep 19th

90 Sep 25 Reply Hi Howard. Sorry. I am also getting confused. I think Ginny has inadvertently change my submission image and it's explanations. My original image for September 2025 that has got comments from Ginny and Janet Piper is a Molting Roster. The following image. Sep 30th
90 Sep 25 Comment Hi Janet. What an awesome candid bird picture. Nice shot. Love it. Sep 19th
90 Sep 25 Reply Hi Ginny. Thanks for your comments. It's a molting Rooster. He was not my main object. It was there when I hunt for bird images. Sep 19th
90 Sep 25 Reply Hi Janet. Thanks for nice comments. Yes. It's a molting Rooster. I saw this animal unintentionally when taking bird pictures. It looks weird and unique. Sep 19th
90 Sep 25 Comment Hi Howard. What an awesome bird. You used Nikon Z8 and Nikkor Z 100-400mm. The are both my dream gadgets. I believe your SOOC RAW would be very good already. You mentioned Topaz AI. To me. The bird fur is a bit too crispy. It's a just personal preference. I love to see downy feathers that are soft and fluffy. I also see a bit of masking imperfection on the left end of the tree branch and part of the protruding branch at the center. I think your super quality RAW would need a minor adjustment in Lightroom. I am looking forward to see more of your bird images. Thanks for sharing it with us. Sep 19th
90 Sep 25 Comment Hi Ginny. What a great shot. Like Janet. I normally use Topaz AI to recover fine details of my animal photography. However, Topaz AI has limitation. It only recover to certain level, otherwise you would get over sharpening effect especially on the bird furs. Sep 19th
