27 Jan 20 Comment Very cool image and the lighting is awesome! I wish (nothing you can do about it) the trees on the left were closer, would tighten up the composition a little. Jan 21st
27 Jan 20 Comment Jon's comments are spot on.. I am usually not a fan of black backgrounds but this really works with excellent tonal range in the flower. Well done! Jan 21st
27 Jan 20 Comment Nice improvements and you have created a nice image. I do like the idea of a little more contrast in the sky and removal of the wires. Jan 21st
27 Jan 20 Comment Very nice colors and a nice simple composition.. not sure you need the sky at all, perhaps crop a 3rd the way down. Jan 21st
27 Jan 20 Comment Interesting technique and I like the effect on the flowers close to the camera. With this fisheye affect, PERHAPS, keeping most of the subject closer will be better. Who knows, more experimentation which is the fun part. I do find the pink box around the image a bit strong. Jan 21st
27 Jan 20 Comment The composition of this image is excellent with an interesting subject matter. I think the colors look very natural and didn't even think twice if they were over saturated. The only challenge you have is the top part of the image which is blown out just enough. If you did a sky replacement, it would need to be darker clouds as you no shadows per say so no sun was shining when you took the photograph.

Don't get me started with judges, I stopped entering competitions a long time ago. I enjoy exercises like this where we are simply giving our opinion. First and foremost, enjoy photography for yourself regardless of what some judge says.		 Jan 21st

44 Jan 20 Comment I have been there back in 1993! I agree with Rick, would nice to have a little separation even though the lighting does a good job. The blend looks good with nice shadow detail. Jan 21st
44 Jan 20 Comment Pretty cool old image.. based on the location and time of day, the harsh lighting is probably appropriate. Nice detail on the inside and the tilting doesn't bother me. Jan 21st
44 Jan 20 Comment My apologies for the confusion!
The reflection makes this something other than a record shot of a painting.
I would probably remove the white car on the right and possibly clone out the blue crane.		 Jan 21st
44 Jan 20 Comment Interesting subject, the framing of the arch is nice and the ghosting of the people seems to be really good. I think the colors appear to be a little oversaturated in the yellow. Jan 21st
44 Jan 20 Comment You have certainly changed the depth of field with processing and made the tree stand out.. well done. The colors look natural and the composition is excellent. Jan 21st
44 Jan 20 Comment A nice image for the season, Merry Christmas. I do like the vertorama and depth in the scene behind the tree. The image looks very natural, well done. Jan 21st
44 Jan 20 Comment The alignment is just OK at best! However, the 2018 version still does a better job of merging on a Mac. At least on my monitor, the secondary & comment images seemed to be getting crushed more than usual. Not much detail in any of the images.

Even though I like the refinement in 2019, I am still going to use 2018 until they fix this issue on a Mac. Unfortunately it probably won't be available until the next release and I will have to pay for it.		 Jan 10th
