Beautiful vivid color and clarity. Congrats!

I usually use the rule of thirds but had to crop this photo because there was a car on the right side of the photo. Cropping put the saxaphone player in the middle but at least I was able to clear some of the junk out of the photo.

After Baron died I said I would never get another dog. A year and a half later, this wonderful companion came into our lives quiet by accident. We adopted him when he was two and I have never met a more loving, loyal and well-behaved dog (most of the time!). He will never replace Baron, but he has filled our lives with joy once again.

That is pretty amazing! We must have been standing in the same spot!

This is almost identical to the one I did in October of 2011! Amazing!

I love the light and composition.

This is a beautiful photograph...great job!

I took the advice of another photographer and used a white

background (this was done in green screen) and I softened the

edges and left some shadows so they wouldn't look like they were

floating. Any critiques would be helpful. Thanks.

Thank you so much for your input. I see what you mean about the floating look. I'm going to try your suggestion and see how it looks. I bought some software called Green Screen Wizard and for the most part it is easy to  use but I still have some learning to do with it. I will keep trying.

I didn't ask him about Ruth...maybe next time I will. We visit that area often.

I've posted a few of these photos but realized I needed to clean it up

a little because of the green screen. Your comments would be

greatly appreciated.

Walking the streets of Cleveland on Christmas Eve, we enjoyed

listening to the music of some of the people playing their

instruments.

Thank you so much for your help. After looking at your photo I see what you mean about the hair light and background light. I really appreciate your help.

Ginni

Very nice detail. Congrats!

I am learning how to use my studio lights. Please submit critiques that

will help me improve. Thanks.

Old men.....sat on a park bench like bookends.

These men were so engrossed in their Italian conversation that they

weren't even aware that I was taking their photo. Comments welcome.

Karolos,

Thank you so much! Coming from you this comment means a lot to me.

Excellent indeed!

This photograph grabs my heart. A homeless man with a smile on his face. How priceless! Great job!

I love this pose! The couple really looks like they are in love and it's comfortable. Great job!

This is very good. I love the expression on his face and the wonderful details of the photograph. Great job!

This is really beautiful!

I walked through a very old cemetery and found some amazing

tombstones. This was one of them.

comments welcome

This beautiful tree was a bright spot in a very old and dreary cemetery. Comments
