Enjoyed them all. Sury Sury Thank you. Glad you enjoyed them. Why did you settle on this particular form of processing? What does it add that was absent previously? They are interesting images but I tend to think that you were looking for something more than just interesting. Thanks for your consid...

Recent posts prompted me to upload a few images I have been working on. My apologies that these are yet more images from my trip to Cuba. For some reason the images I took on that trip more than any other seem to cry out to me for some form of manipulation. The "straight" photos somehow ju...

Hi Mike and Yildiz, Thanks for raising the question and for the answer. I have had similar problems in the past. Now I know the answer.

Mike, love the photo. The mono works a treat.

Excellent images

I agree with Yildiz and Sury. IMHO if it were my image I would get rid of the highlights in the top left corner. My eye gets drawn there and I find them distracting.

Lovely images all.

A picture from the Isle of Skye during my trip in February. Birma, Wow! Simply beautiful. Your images from Skye are inspirational. Haven't visited yet but I really must get my act into gear and go there. ValeryD Lovely images. They bring back memories of a great trip on the "Canadian" fro...

The middle one certainly looks like a container ship with that grey looking like a big rectangle. Sury Sury Here is an image taken some minutes later as that ship, the Queen Elizabeth, passed by. _DSC0402-QUEEN ELIZABETH_.jpg A different style of cruising with this super-yacht. She was built in 193...

Stunning!

Hi Yilditz Is there any HDR applied to these shots, so that the foreground was nicely showered with light while the rainy sky was gradually darkening in the background as in the 3rd shot? Thank you for your comments. I was just lucky to be there at the right time. The sun caught the yellow flowers o...

Sury

Thank you.
