79 Apr 23 Comment Hi Lauren. The the coffee is an interesting addition to your collection. I am a bit confused. The original has a smooth patina, and the light streaks flow smoothly through it. In the version you are working on The patina is gone, and there are scuff marks all over the central portion of the pot. Since I am lazy, I ran the image through Topaz Photo AI, then back in PS, removed surface blur, and restored some of the patina. I am leaving things up to you t fix the reflection ant the patina to your taste. Apr 21st
79 Apr 23 Reply Gerard, Although like this image, there was something bothering me, that I could not put my finger on. After several looks, I think that your background suggestion may have given me a starting place. Thank you. Apr 21st
79 Apr 23 Comment Hi Lauren, It was only after I started playing with your original that I started appreciating the work involved in the project. From a personal POV I prefer the light patina on the original. From what I have seen on the other items in the collection that you are assembling, consistency within your collection would be a deciding factor. Sounds like a fun project. Several years ago I started assembling a themed collection that I called "Some Derrieres Belong Only On The Beach." Just prior to finishing, an HDD failure taught me the value of backups. I never felt like restarting the project. Apr 17th
79 Apr 23 Comment I think that one of the tests fo a good abstract, aside from the obvious "do I like it," is there multiple interpretations. I am usually sticky about use of a thin delimitation border line. Here, is an exception. As presented the lack of a border line gives me a troglodytic impression. Apr 16th
79 Apr 23 Comment Interesting beginning of spring. I agree with Karl's comment about a crop Though I wonder about its eyes. Apr 16th
79 Apr 23 Comment Impression. Great job. I love the impact of your image. Based on your description, it appears that you have indeed spent a lot of time working on your image both as a labor of love, and a remembrance of your dad.
I am going to go out on a limb. I think it would be a stronger competition image if you remove the little white spots; flip horizontally and show at a steeper angle. I like your image better without the handle, but that is artists choice. Are you looking to please a judge, or yourself. Very well done.		 Apr 16th
