December 2019 - Santa Barbara Sunrise
About the Image(s)
Sunrises are not as popular as we get used to seeing them photographed more often. But the joy of capturing it is still a thrill. This is an iPhone photo from a front porch. Just a panorama. I will crop out the dark right corner in photoshop and do a content aware fill when I get home.

Very pretty sunrise. Besides your corrections, I would crop off the left side to get rid of the partial tree. Large areas of trees without a base are usually a distracting element. Posted: 12/14/2019 08:56:16
Barbara - You really do capture some of the most dramatic images of sunrises and sunsets. I agree with Tom about the tree on the right, Also, with the Photoshop changes you plan on making. I am not sure what you can do with the houses and cars in the neighborhood, but they would be on my list too. Posted: 12/14/2019 09:11:36
Nice dawn scenery image from iPhone.
I agree Tom and Paul's comment to crop off left side partial tree, even I would remove right side partial tree to made the whole image more clean.
The iPhone photo viewing in iPhone and in small size on computer monitor is pretty Also I would, but if enlarged a little bit, then it will blurred.

I should not have submitted this image. In a hurry. But now I have access to photoshop I made a few changes. I like Tony's cropping better. I rubber stamped out the houses and cropped out the cars. I also did content aware fill on the right top corned. Posted: 12/15/2019 21:39:51
Very good improvement, and now the tree on the left seems to have a base. Posted: 12/17/2019 12:59:59
What a nice impactful sunset image, Barbara, with the cloud coverage and the unique detail within. Composition wise, including the silhouetted tree tops, adds to the overall appeal. Well exposed and processed.
My only sugggestion would be to crop in from the left eliminating the bright area.

Beautigul sunrise! I feel the ground a bit dark, may be HDR? Posted: 12/19/2019 20:25:37
Gorgeous array of colors. You were lucky to be able to capture it, most of the time I see a sunset like this I can't stop to get it. I do agree with the others as far as taking out the trees. Nice job Barbara. Posted: 12/21/2019 13:46:34
