27 May 22 Comment Certainly interesting rock formations and texture along the ridge. However it is missing something to make it stand out a little more. May 24th
27 May 22 Comment Very cool photo!!!! I really like this as well and probably would not change it much. Out of curiosity, you could probably select the tree trunks and mask out the texture which might improve it a little. May 24th
27 May 22 Comment Has a almost high key effect which worked out very nicely. The almost all white background allows your 3 subjects to stand out even more. The color of the champagne really adds to the photo, well done. May 24th
27 May 22 Comment A very nice job on the post processing, you have really brought out a lot of detail and color to create a lovely image. The advantage to the color, the water stream down the hill stands out a little more and shows the subtle variations on the side of the hills. Perhaps crop a little more off the bottom, the water doesn't really add a whole lot. May 24th
27 May 22 Comment Indeed a fun photo and wonderful memory. I like the head, body and arms. There is a lot to look at and cropping would be a challenge because of the round flowers on both sides. You could crop the right right side and clone them away on the left. May 24th
27 May 22 Comment Really lovely composition and as everyone said, great DOF. The 2 bright spots could darkened or cloned pretty easily. I think the main flowers could be a little brighter so that they stand out even more. You could do this with a dodge layer or using the new selection filter in Lightroom which Oliver mentions.

44 May 22 Reply I like the little more pop, I can be a little conservative sometimes on my enhancements. May 31st
44 May 22 Comment A wonderful image with great color and tone that looks very natural. As Rick said, don't go crazy but you could add a little more light coming in the through the right on the floor with selective dodging. May 24th
44 May 22 Comment Really nice composition which has wonderfully balanced light inside and nice light outside. I am not sure your goal with this photo, but if you are looking for realism, perhaps use a mask on the inside to reduce the green and red saturation. May 24th
44 May 22 Comment Your transform and skew did a nice job, it looks pretty straight. Certainly an interesting angle which really highlights the clock tower. I agree with working on the merger and brightening the image overall with some emphasis on the tower. Photomatix can produce some strange colors, is that the true color of the fort? May 24th
44 May 22 Comment Beautiful image, I have never been there, I bet it is a popular spot. My only comment is in regards to the right side, it looks a little bright and you may have lost some highlights. I understand why you brightened them because of the waterfalls, but I think they could be toned down a little. May 24th
44 May 22 Comment Very simple and effective, looks absolutely natural, well done. May 24th
44 May 22 Reply WOW, what about all your Nikon equipment? May 24th
44 May 22 Reply Your comment made me curious because I almost submitted another photo which I had to do a blend with a non-HDR sky because of movement. So between that one and the sky opening with some light was only about 5 minutes. The one above is 4 exposures and the clouds didn't move much. I agree, from the visitors center without something, the 3 sisters do not appear very big. May 8th
