27 Oct 25 Comment Nice scene with the boats and the nice sunset. The colors of the sunset look ok, perhaps a pinch over saturated but every viewer will be different in that regard. The blue of the sky is a bit over saturated for this type of photo. I would clone out the bird, I was wondering if it was a spec on my monitor. I like Beccas crop as well as a different version even though perhaps a little too much off the top. Oct 28th
27 Oct 25 Comment Very cool building and a great find. The window does seem to affect the image, lacking in some contrast, dehaze or possible clarity? Oct 28th
27 Oct 25 Comment A lovely spot, simple and nice cropping. But I think there is more in the sky if you were shooting RAW. The sky could use a little more color and pop. Oct 28th
27 Oct 25 Comment Cool bird and nice capture launching from the cliffs. As Becca pointed out, too bad there was not a pinch more separation. Good separation from the background, overall a nice photo. Oct 28th
27 Oct 25 Reply Try adjusting the white balance and warming it up. Oct 28th
27 Oct 25 Comment Interesting.. you do not always see the rear of the car with the dirt flying at you. I do prefer the car coming at me, sense of danger and speed I think. But, always good to see a different perspective. Oct 28th
27 Oct 25 Comment Nice grist mill, interesting when the leaves change? Very tough lighting and there is not much you can do in regard to camera settings, huge contrast range. You could shoot several and do a blend or HDR.

I don't know if the OM-1 MKi has the grad ND filter as an option, if it does, you could try that in situations like this. Another option would be to a Luminosity Mask and there are several plugins on the market which are really good such as Tony Kyper's one. The masks target certain areas and then you can use a number of photoshop tools to help control the bright areas.

44 Oct 25 Comment After seeing the print on the metallic paper, the digital image is not quite the same and lacks some of the pop and impact. Good subject and cool old rusted stuff certainly makes this interesting Oct 28th
44 Oct 25 Comment Cool old building, looks a bit lonely sitting all by itself. The processing looks ok, good structure and pretty natural looking. Just seems a little static and not sure HDR really helped in this image, a lot of mid tones. Oct 28th
44 Oct 25 Comment You do like your photo balls! Nice pattern, good colors, looks very realistic in regard to the processing. A nice image and it's nice to see the different size spheres. Not really sure what to add, well done. Oct 28th
44 Oct 25 Comment I do not know if this is HDR, but the results are phenomenal. The Shoveler looks great, sharpness, details, colors, well done portrait of a good looking duck. Oct 28th
