Kelly, really nice work. I like the contrast between her skin color and the seascape. This could have been even better with a more ominous sky with fuller, darker clouds.

Exceptional job on this one! Beautifully framed, nice tones. The expressions of the clowns are also remarkable. The atmosphere of this shot evokes shades of Fellini's "La Strada." The only thing I'm wondering about is the lower righthand corner - is that somebody's arm? What would the image look like with that cropped out?

Imagine...there's no photoshop...by the way, if I'm wrong about that, please let me know!

This looks like it should have been on the cover for the latest of the "Child's Play" series.

 

Kind of like someone took a Salvador Dali postcard and put it through Photoshop.

Jean-Luc, the colors in this image are very nice. But why "add" the volcano? My advice to you would be to use a real camera and not rely on photoshop.

As digitized as they come.

From the Top of Rockefeller Center at Twilight after begging the guard to let me use my

tabletop tripod I had just bought! Apparently they are trying to stop people from taking

nightshots so they can have a monopoly them! Anyway, No photoshop, just Fuji's 64 speed

Tungsten film to paint the city in blue...

The subject is interesting but this looks like a photo that's been heavily manipulated. Still can't see why "desaturating" in photo shop to create a black and white image impresses so many people on this website.

At 17mm, in order to capture as much of the bridges as possible. Included as much water as

I could without getting really bad distortion on the building/bridges. Still too much sky?

Brooklyn and Manhattan Bridges on a humid Wednesday night making for some interesting

colors. Is it too underexposed?

From the Empire State Building around 8:30 AM, the city bathed in morning sunlight. Had

some Portra 400 VC in the camera, not ideal for shooting this scene, but I tried to make the

most of it. Comments?

Brooklyn and Manhattan Bridges from the Manhattan side. I went for a longer exposure to

get the glossy effect on the water. Comments?

Long exposure with some vintage Ektar 25. Comments?

Looks fake and like it's undergone heavy post-processing, but so do most "Photos of the Day."

A very misty evening in Shanghai...

The first lights of the evening coming on in Hong Kong's Victoria Harbour...

Storm clouds over Pudong...

Pudong head-on. No photoshop here, it DOES look like this, a bit garrish, but

somehow...beautiful...perhaps???

Victoria Harbour head-on shortly before sunset...

Twilight crossing in Taipei's Daan Forest Park, circa summer 2005...

A beautiful array of colors in Victoria Harbour as the lights on the buildings come on...

Night falling on Taipei City. This is one of the few shots I took of the lights coming on before

the sky was dark. Comments?

Incredible skies in Taipei in the late summer, this one from August 2005, a very happy time

indeed : )

A vessel is headed from Kowloon to Hong Kong Island as night falls...
