Beautiful capture of a magnificent place Elin. When we were there the wind was howling and the tourists (I guess that means us) were all over the place. I much prefer this….you are lucky.

Love it Robert.

The echo of the dark clouds shape to the ground really brings this one together for me. Great choice Elin and a wonderful image Diane.

Good to know Patrick.

If you use PS then I think you’ll find this helpful Joanne.

I use jpg, sRGB, 2048 on long side, 72ppi (because it’s for computer monitor viewing). I resize the file with ON1 resize because with that software I can turn any extra sharpening off while resizing. PS does not give that kind of control while resizing.

Lovely scene Diane. Looks like a great place to go for a walk. No masks required 😉

A very difficult choice Kent. Both are winners. Congratulations to you Joanne and Jasenka.

Beautiful image Bruce. Wonderful colours and scale. Congrats!

Pretty good composite Jim. Maybe match the contrast of the couple with that of the BG. Adding some dust and scratches might be interesting too.

I didn’t notice  Rob. Keep on with the experiment. Hopefully it will get rid of the spam problem.

Thanks Miriam. I’m glad I didn’t compromise it. Editing can be a steep slope but well worth the climb. For me it started out just wanting to be able to make different effects with no real vision. The turning point was when I began looking at my images and deciding what they should become. The previous and continuous learning has never been wasted.…[Read more]

Here it is for what it’s worth Miriam. I straightened the left window, warmed the hair, brought out some hair detail, brightened her slightly and darkened the viewed through window frame a bit plus the other things I mentioned before. As you can see from the responses this image is well received. Pick and choose what you like from any of the…[Read more]

Hi Miriam. Very nice capture of a mood in this one. For me the background needs to be there to add to the sense of place however the left side and the cyan/blue are a bit strong and pull the eye. You could easily tame the issues down with a curves layer masked with a gradient on the left. To reduce the cyan/blue try a hue saturation layer and pull…[Read more]

Hi Jim. As it’s more of a snapshot. I would tighten up the crop a lot until the main subjects are the stars and there’s just enough of the supporting background to suggest place.

As an alternative maybe a period style of processing?

Totally agree Patrick. Nicely done Tobie.

That is quite a nice result Graham. How many images are involved in this composite?

I like this image Renee and keep coming back to it.

I couldn’t resist taking a crack at editing it. I think the original colour has too much Cyan. I’ve colour corrected and enhanced the colours plus added some contrast and detail to the clouds. For me this portrays a bright sunny day a little better. Here it is for what it’s worth.

Thanks Graham. The lighter spot is another “shroom”. The X-T3 does making taking a stack a breeze.

Thanks Erik. The Fringer adapter sure makes using my Canon glass a breeze. Gotta say I do like the X-T3 for many reasons.
