  1. I think this is your best picture, I really like the colours (and ofcourse the compo). And you succeeded very well in your purpose to make this look like a painting.

    Only thing I would have tried different is maybe, to use the smudge-tool, so that the colours would go fluently from one to the other. Wouldn't that make it look more like a painting?

  2. Hi Micki,

     

    I'm a big fan of manipulated pictures too, although a picture doesn't always has to be manipulated to be beautifull. I think my excuse for manipulating pictures is that first of all I like working with photoshop, but secondly I think that I'm still not able to make nice unmanipulated pictures and I'm jealous at people who can ;-)

    You asked me to compare this photo with the b&w one; well I must say that I do like this one better. I like the composition, the colours, the clouds, but I'm sorry I don't like this type of manipulation. The clouds are beautifull as they are I think and don't need so much manipulation. I like this picture better when I look at it in the smallest version, and that is because then you can't really see the manipulation.

    But this is just my personal opinion, when I see the high ratings you get on this picture, most people do like this type of manipulation :-).

    The colours are just magnificent. Although we've allready seen a ot of pictures in these colours,in this case they look a little bit different, as if you've painted the background. And the colours are not over the top. With a lot of sunset-pictures the colours are made to bright or in really cheep red, or simply just to plain and boring in my opinion, but not with this one. Well done!
  3. Yeah great angle. I've seen a lot of pictures of this spider on photo.net, but don't think I've seen it taken from this angle yet. The spider fills the picture completely, and the picture is taken as if you're his next prey :-).

    But maybe, I don't know - personal opinion - it would be better if you photoshopped a little bit, and removed the trees?

    And I love the colours too :-)

  4. I think the clouds are just perfect, they give a painting-like feeling to the picture. And the colours are great.

    But a question about the bridge, what is USM? I like the effect, but I never heard of USM. Is it something like HDR? Because it looks a little bit like that.
