| Peter A (Peter) Msg: #2 July 16th 2006 13:43:21 | Nice angle, interesting to my eyes. At the risk of making it look too fake, I tried warming up the colors, sharpening the image, and then a bit of saturation. This is what I came up with. What do you think? |

| Bob Wallace (BobTrips) Msg: #3 July 16th 2006 16:09:39 | The colors are more striking in the second version, but I don't know how believable they are. I think what keeps this image from being better is that the Opera House is not clearly standing out from the background. A lower shot angle would have been better, I think. Dropping the background shoreline in the frame and letting the structure protrude into the sky would have been more dramatic. | |||||||||||||||||||||
| Justin Watson (Justin) Msg: #4 July 17th 2006 07:42:17 | hmm i really liked the shadows on the Opera house. Unfortunately i wasn't wandering around the harbour to take photos, but more up there to visit a friend. Funny i live 3 hours away yet never find time to visit to get some really good photos! Plus it was handheld, so alot of my other photos are a bit blurry. The orange hues of the edit look great, maybe not believable but striking. | |||||||||||||||||||||
| Bob Wallace (BobTrips) Msg: #5 July 17th 2006 13:21:37 | It's not the shadows on the OH that I was commenting on. They are interesting. It's the background. Take a look at your other OH picture and see how the OH is framed against the sky. Looks a lot more imposing from that angle to me. | |||||||||||||||||||||
| Adrian Warren (AdrianW) Msg: #6 July 20th 2006 20:49:03 | Here's an alternative perspective - more modern art I guess. Hard crop, then a little Curves to accentuate the contrast. Selective brightness adjust on the left sail and on the shrubs on the right. Just an idea :) |

| Jasmine (Jaz) Msg: #7 July 27th 2006 00:07:48 | I love the shadows on the original photo, depending on what you are trying to do I like the revisions also, but the original is the one that looks real. | |||||||||||||||||||||
| Justin Watson (Justin) Msg: #8 July 27th 2006 07:50:55 | yes i like the shadows too, i agree with Bob the shoreline is distracting. Next time i visit Sydney i'll try and see what other photos i can get and also get a few shots of the bridge. | |||||||||||||||||||||
