62 Dec 23 Comment Israel,

Thanks for taking the time to create your version of New Haven

I do use Generative Fill on the clouds, it can really be helpful. I did not think to try it on the street however.

Thanks

Emil

62 Dec 23 Comment Israel,

You have access to such historic places. Thankfully you and your camera capture these places and you share them with us monthly. I enjoy seeing the places you visit.

I offer an alternate lighting approach to your image via LR Classic. I reduced the exposure overall by 1.25, used a brush on the mural/taperstry above the worshippers and increased the exposure by 1 stop and then I placed an elongated radial gradient over the worshippers heads and increased the exposure slight by .2.

Regards

62 Dec 23 Comment Bunny,

I like the fact you capture poetry material in the foreground, it gives my eye a starting point into the room

As with many of the submissions in our group, we commenters like to see what other permutations are possible..

I darkened the room a bit in LR Classic, added a linear gradient to the foreground and increased the exposure and I added the new lens blur at 30% so your eye stays in the foreground

Regards

Emil

Thanks for your thoughts.

Re the sky at the time I processed this image I was trying to create contrast to the building facades. Let me try your suggestion.

St Martin's Theatre in London appears to be a great venue to catch a play...

There is a lot for the eye to take in so one thought is to place an off center vignette to bring the eye forward. I used NIK Color Efex

Nice peaceful scene with quiet water reflection

You could consider darkening the fur trees using the LR Classic brush for more contrast

62 Dec 23 Comment Hi Pete

Nice shot. Your jogger makes the image for me it gives a sense a scale to your image

I dd a little simple adjustment I hit the Auto button in LR Classic and added a little clarity and dehaze

Well done. I like your perspective here and shot while on excursion for an extra degree of difficulty

Thanks for your comments. The Badlands is great place to shoot. There is never an overwhelming crowd of visitors.

Looking for your feedback on the following...

My quandry is if I make the sky a bit more contrasty/darker (attached) my eye goes there first vice the terrain features that I spent some effort to bring out the details so I try to make the sky a secondary area.

Regards

Emil

PS Ignore the halo above the terrain for now. I can fix it later		 Dec 6th
66 Dec 23 Comment Jack

Wonderful scene with nice leading lines into your image. Top marks as Palli would say

66 Dec 23 Comment Charles

I think this is one of your best IR images. A home run way out of the park

66 Dec 23 Comment Palli

Your skill in processing your sand sculpture image is on a par with the folks who created it.

66 Dec 23 Comment Arik

I am not sure if your subject is "grumpy' but something has caught his eye in the foreground causing him the set his lunch aside momentarily

I like your pastel blue and tan clothing colors. Each person has a different pleasing outcome across the mid ground that makes my eyes happy.

Well done

Emil

Finely tuned use of Generative Fill. Like you I do not discard my images. This AI technology, which will only improve, allows us to process the images we set aside because of unwanted objects.

66 Dec 23 Comment Melanie,

Wow Peeping is right...

I think that pulling the child's eyes out of the shadow as Gary did is all you need to do
