... there still is hope.. I see the silver lining !

...and soothing. A few of the pictures I have seen where a "outgoing" subject does not harm the picture !

Thanks for viewing and commenting. Done with Studio strobes.

...you continue to amaze with your new passion in Macro! You are doing an excellent job. Keep it up and let us enjoy the fantastic captures !

 

Congrats !

...this really looks monstrous ! Which one of it is the needle to suck ? I wonder !

 

Very nice macro work ! You are getting better and better everyday I see!

 

Congrats !

... You really are striding fast ! Good capture ! Waiting to see more of your good work !

 

Keep it up.

 

P.S. It needs to be viewed larger to be appreciated better.

...another great one... you are on a roll!

 

Fantastic capture! A piece of cruelty by natural law presented in an artistic way!

 

Congrats.

.... the absolute best from you so far ! A stunning image. You are definitely improving at a great pace !

 

An eye charmer ! I would be proud of taking this picture, anyday !

 

Keep the good work up !

....unless there is an obvious elevation by a hill, mountain, etc, the horizon, by definition, is level !

 

On the other hand, the sky looks pretty polarized to me and if you have not used a polarizer, using one will make it unnatural, very dark blue!

Also, exposure seems to be alright on my monitor!

 

See the attachment please. thanks

...I think the mood is captured very well here. The traveler even looks tired ! Good composition!

 

Pay more attention to the horizon. That is why, I think, in landscapes, tripod is a must !

...the bird almost looks a comical human to me ! Excellent picture ..I love the eye details and color ! Can you give us the background of this shot ?

 

This is a fabulous capture ! I could rate you 10/8 for this one.

...I think the background choice was nice to complement the rose's color. A diffuser would probably have made it more saturated by avoiding the hot spots.

 

Overall, I like it.

... captured well. The cloud in the sky blended nicely with the building and made this picture so much more beautiful ! Just wish the foreground lump was not there ! But then, I know you could not help it !

 

 

Thank you for your comments and the advise regarding the lighting. I just assembled a posing table(bought 2 months ago) for my studio, a few minutes ago. Will experiment.

 

Thank you once again, for your time and appreciation.

My daughter, on her 9th birthday. Thanks for viewing. Any lighting

advise will be appreciated.

...I just wish the foreground was in focus !

This is beautiful.

Trying to shoot birds. Looks like not something I can do!

From a speedboat sailing slowly. Handheld. Your opinion please

.. I think your crop is good to emphasize the road, its course and to bring up the mood to start walking. But, I had a problem !

 

Do You know what it is ?

 

Yellow is my MOST favourite color.

... Thank you for liking the picture and taking time to comment on it. About the tree, the only thing I did was sharpening in PS with this setting ( 75/2/2). I did not do any selective sharpening of the foreground tree.( I dont even know if you could do such a thing. My knowledge of PS is very rudimentary and I do not, in general, like manipulation of photos in PS )! Did I overdo it ? Sorry about that ! Will be more careful in future.

... thank you for liking the picture. It is really relaxing to walk on that trail, which spans more than a mile surrounding the golf course! A foggy morning here is really surrealistic

... Here is what I did for you. Do you like it better now ? I could not go any lower ! Thank you for your appreciation. The color at the top forced me to keep that crop I orginally posted.

Nothing special. The golf trail is in the back of my house ( I do

NOT play golf) and is pretty at times ! Thanks for viewing.

... for your appreciation.
