21 Dec 24 Reply Thanks Mike. I might have read a bit too much into your comment above. Dec 20th
21 Dec 24 Reply Thanks Mike. That's unfortunate, but that's how I captured it. Dec 19th
21 Dec 24 Reply Thanks Mike. But the white goose in the image is not a Canada Goose, they have a lot of black on their heads and necks.

21 Dec 24 Comment Michael, an unusual, interesting bird, I've never seen anything quite like this. I agree with Leslie about the crop. Dec 18th
21 Dec 24 Comment You captured this rare bird well, you didn't need flash. Maybe try a sky replacement (or else just add a bit of color and darken it a bit). Dec 18th
21 Dec 24 Comment Good nature story with this series of images. Is "greylag" the species name of the grey goose? Dec 18th
21 Dec 24 Comment I agree with Leslie, too much water cleanup is not needed, just remove the bright spots. Good detail in the feathers. Dec 18th
21 Dec 24 Reply Thanks Tom. I must agree that removal of all the foreground vegetation improves this image considerably. Dec 10th

44 Dec 24 Comment Just another interesting thought I had right now. I think you could use Photoshop to add a light to the area at bottom center that's missing one. I think Lisa's muddy gray is caused by a shadow effect from the cord and therefore is OK. Dec 31st
44 Dec 24 Reply Yes, I chose Whitney Park after doing a search with the aid of Google Maps then making a reservation before I left home. Dec 31st
44 Dec 24 Reply Thanks Lisa. Actually I did not do these. I didn't have my tripod, didn't carry that on the trip. I used ISO 1600 and my lens has image stabilization turned on. I also used Topaz Denoise AI, which I've found does a really great job at noise reduction, even when I'm shooting my grandsons playing hockey with ISO 25600. I tried to stand at the same spot the next morning but when I worked these files I realized that the spots were slightly different and so did a bit of additional editing to match them. Dec 31st

44 Dec 24 Comment Good clean shot, as Rick says the architecture is really amazing and all the work done to restore this station was well worth it. Some might say it would be static, but I would prefer if the line formed by the light fixtures was horizontal rather than slanted. Dec 18th
44 Dec 24 Comment Amazing, I would never have known you could create an HDR image from a drone in flight. I wish there were a green or yellow tree on the right side, would improve the balance.

44 Dec 24 Comment Good color, but the sunlit parts of the peaks are somewhat lacking in detail. I would think, however, that there would be an option among the many Aurora HDR presets that would provide more detail here. Dec 18th
44 Dec 24 Comment There are some interesting detyails here. I'm not sure you would actually have needed HDR, considering your mention of its being quite overcast and no sky in the image. Dec 18th
44 Dec 24 Reply Thanks Rick. I'm not sure what you mean by "two small nits". But I think I should clone the window washer rails, they wouldn't be there in the night. Dec 16th
