56 Feb 22 Comment Beautifully done and those eyes are killers! My impression that what's in his mouth are teeth. Just an excellent piece! Feb 21st
56 Feb 22 Comment Terry I like your choice of a watercolor for this! The contrast of the leaves, the tones and colors all make this a wonderful image. I can see why you wanted the brown at top to balance or border with the brown leaves at bottom, but both Nancy and Cindy are correct about removal of the top brown areas. Overall, a very wonderful image! Feb 21st
56 Feb 22 Reply Cindy, I'm a former Yankee, having lived in West Hartford through the 60s and early 70s. Feb 21st
56 Feb 22 Comment Funky. Good choice in making a new background. I agree with Cindy about that background, you might want to burn it. Detail on the main flower and the spikes really draw attention. Impactful. Feb 21st
56 Feb 22 Comment I agree that you definitely warmed up the entire image and it looks very much like a water color, which is a great choice for this image. The Ibis provide an excellent foreground and I like the circular eye flow through the image. There's also nice DOF. Feb 21st
56 Feb 22 Comment Pat, you can remove the screen mesh with Gaussian Blur in PS and then put on a canvas effect later in the process if that is what you want. You might have a better overall result. The flipping of the image is wonderful and the vegetation points down to the pair and I like the crop. Feb 21st
56 Feb 22 Reply I like your crop. My thinking was to have the darker border along the top but I can see from your cropping that it really doesn't lose any impact. Feb 21st

76 Feb 22 Comment Nice captures of facial expressions and love the contrast of light and darkness. You've got two string horizontal lines (the bar and carpet) and you have to decide which to use. Very interesting characters at the "Ballet Bar"! Feb 21st
76 Feb 22 Comment Definitely like the way you brought the image to life! The fence posts at left are your leading line in this image. However, I might have tried to set it up moving more to the right and allow the line on the water's edge to be that leading line. Also, by going forward a tad, you could get separation between the overarching tree and the tree below it. The sharpness of the image blesses the arching tree's branches and limbs. Beautiful sky behind. Wonderful perspective with the walking couple, one of whom wears red (the all important red!). Feb 21st
76 Feb 22 Comment Very well done and a good way to mimic light painting. Others said it better than I could! You definitely have a distinct style. Feb 21st
76 Feb 22 Comment I like the way you increased the green color on this fire bush. My perception challenge was have my eye go off at left with all the strong branch lines leading that way and a large negative space at right. So, I had to find something that was more balanced to my eye. I cropped in more, put the drip line on the 1/3rd line, and balanced the ice at top left with the dark at bottom right. Maybe this helps, maybe not. Fun challenge of an image to work with! Feb 21st
76 Feb 22 Comment An image of proportion and perspective and minimalist. The darker are across the top helps with DOF, the penguin is on the 1/3 line. Yes, get rid of the railing. Nicely done! Feb 21st

88 Feb 22 Comment I love your leading lines! The person provides a nice perspective of size. The yellow structure is excellent in this image. As far as the sky, I like it and the moon is the cherry on top! I agree with John about taking the vehicles out of the image. Maybe increase the overall contrast just a tad. Also, here's a link to some vids on getting rid of telephone lines: https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=getting+rid+of+telephone+lines+in+a+photo Feb 22nd
88 Feb 22 Comment Rich, I'll be the contrarian in the group (something I developed as a teen!). I think your sky is the right choice for this image. It is pretty much all one tone and provides a nice edge like the bottom greenery. For the Eastern eye (goes right to left) the image is great but hard on the Western eye, but that's the challenge: to get circular eye movement. For that I'd clip a small portion of the right side off so the yellow building across that think slice of barren land is on the edge and provides a nice link between top and bottom. Everything to my eye is tack sharp and there is a nice DOF. The dome also is a wonderful contrast to the rectangular shapes beneath! Feb 22nd
88 Feb 22 Comment Overall a wonderful winter image! The trunk is on the 1/3 line, the portion of branches closest to the front edge is brighter than the rest of the tree provides a fantastic contrast to the darkness of the trunk. You also added a faint bluish tint to bring out the feeling of cold. I would now challenge you to do a high key b&w version! Wish I had this kind of snow here in Wisconsin this winter! Feb 22nd
88 Feb 22 Comment Wonderful challenge to put this together! I think you succeeded in many ways. When in the mountains it is hard at times to get balance because one's position doesn't allow for it, ditto the sky. Everything in the image channels the eye down the middle to the bright cloud in the sky. My eye also goes to the lower cloud line which I know isn't perfectly horizontal in reality but gives a leftward pitch to the image. Yet in the original you had that line perfectly horizontal. Your choice. I love the vibrant color of the mountains and canyon and the contrast between light and dark. A beautiful image! Feb 22nd
88 Feb 22 Comment I like the way the valley becomes the leading line from bottom left to what appears to be a cave or darkened rock formation with the mountains beings the backdrop. I think you may have over sharpened the image? The shrubbery added by Quang is a border, which you may or may not like. But I do like the way he brought the yellow out in the foreground bush. Ditto above about the sky replacement. I do like the contrast between the shade and brightness in the image. Feb 22nd
