Really nice, sharp capture.

Excellent shot. The expression on her face and the lighting look like a scene from a horror movie.

Excellent picture, clearly gives you the feeling of being in limbo, being able to see in but running into a barrier so she can't get in.

Was the blur effect created by a layer in PS (which you are a master at, by looking at your portfolio), or was it shot through a translucent sheet of plastic?

Looks like a snapshot of a house that's about 3/4 stop under exposed (can be fixed in PS, add new layer (levels, or curves, but don't have to adjust there), set blending to screen, and back off opacity to about 75%). Compositionally, it sits dead center; perhaps you could have shot from an angle emphasizing the pillared entrance.

I like the image, but wonder how it would look if the background were a bit more blurred; to create a shallower depth of field look. If you have the background in a separate PS layer, it would be easy to try.

I'd like to see this picture, as well as your other football pictures, shot with a much shallower depth of field so that the crowd is blurred out. The crowd is distracting to seeing the Jaguars uniforms

Excellent shot, depth of field is perfect. Timing and composition are also dead on.

I like the picture, and know the creek well . The horizon looks like its skewed a slight bit, which is easy to fix in PS (rotate canvas 1 degree clockwise, and recrop).

I like the way the smoke looks with the rose, but I think it would have looked better with a looser crop with the smoke (could be made to look like thick mist) creeping up and around the rose.

I really like the colors in this picture. I'm drawn to how well the colors of the shingles on the roof are brought out by the foliage.

Can you repost it larger? Its really hard to see this small.

I agree that the photo needs to be cropped; I'd make it look like a panorama shot, and crop off the bottom, just a little into the dark water.

Beautiful colors. I think I would have liked the picture better if the ship sat a bit further back.

That's very cool. Perfect use of the swirl filter; enough to create the look of a real vortex, but not too much so where it would look fake.

August 16, 2003

Very spooky looking! The red sky compliments the house very well. This looks like it could be the setting of an Edgar Allen Poe story.

August 16, 2003

Very nice capture with no apparent window reflections. Good focus on the bird, with accompanying blurred background.

August 15, 2003

Really nice perspective; gives the feel of an infinite path.

August 8, 2003

I like the picture, except for the spikes (fence?) growing out of the squirrel. I think that these could be easily cloned out in PS.

August 4, 2003

I like the framing of the couple under the arch, but the picture would work much better if she was looking at the male, instead of at the camera.

August 2, 2003

Good timing. I'm surprised the polarizer didn't take out the reflection in the glass.

July 31, 2003

Nice capture; gives the sense of the dog having personality.

July 31, 2003

Amazing amount of blue in the picture. Did it really look that way, or was the blue something that was picked up by the film?

July 29, 2003

Excellent capture. I'm amazed at how sharp your images are with the 100-400; did you have to do much sharpening in PS? I always found mine to be a bit soft (you could see it in the eyes); so I sold it in favor of the razor sharp 70-200 2.8.
