| Bob Wallace (BobTrips) Msg: #1 August 27th 2005 16:35:22 | Beautiful scene. Try this - straighten your horizon (look at the water line). Then crop off lots of the bottom and some of the sky to take advantage of the breadth of your subject. And did you sharpen after resizing? | |||||||||||||||||||||

| Bob Wallace (BobTrips) Msg: #3 August 28th 2005 11:30:10 | Better? If you were trying to sell me a photo then I would be more likely to buy the second version. Your revision is more inviting *to me*. I find it richer and I like the broader, more expansive feel. But the real critic here is you. You are making pictures to please yourself (as are all of us amateurs). My suggestions were simply to get you to look at your image with a different set of eyes, not to impose some 'greater sense of value'. What do you think of your two versions? | |||||||||||||||||||||
| Graham Olley (Graham) Msg: #4 August 28th 2005 12:01:40 | I think the second is a lot better, but the colour's are nearer in the first one. Photshop has so many different ways to correct a photo I find it difficult to decide which way to go. I find myself playing in "post" much more than I should be, many times I will go back to the original, use auto levels then leave it at that, after wasting hours fiddling with the pic. It's very easy to drift away from the original scene. Version 2 when viewed full size looks a little grainy to me, maybe I have gone a bit overboard with the sharpening. | |||||||||||||||||||||
| Ben Wouters (baw) Msg: #5 August 28th 2005 15:33:20 | Hai Graham, I like the autumn like atmosphere in your shot. Colours look great on my momitor. When framing this shot perhaps a slightly higher horizon could make the composition a bit stronger still. The sky is not bad, but no match for the rest of the composition. What do you think? |
