Linda, this picture really is full of joy and happiness! What vivid colors! The three main objects are beautifully in focus, and I like the composition very much. The colors make the three ladies stand out from the messy crowd in the background. However, I think that the arm of the person in the orange t-shirt at the right edge is slightly disturbing; you might consider cloning it away or darkening it a bit, or even cropping him off? I would also think of darkening/cloning off the white windowsills that may distract the eye? A wonderful picture!   Posted: 08/06/2020 14:37:25

Linda, I see it differently with the focus being on the magenta hair. The other two are looking down and not adding happiness. I would recommend a crop to Portrait size and limit it to the central figure and stop the vertical just below the window sill. Yes, it will include part of the green hair but that adds to the color. It also crops out the distracting people in the background.   Posted: 08/10/2020 17:43:30

The triumvirate of colorful clowns is quite fascinating . First of all the colors really catch your eye. I noticed that the card actually said, "Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness " and they certainly seen to epitomize all of those traits. There's something very positive about this. They stand out so well from the crowd in the background which seems to be going in the opposite direction. I wonder if this is a big political statement of today's options. One of them seems to have a mirror in her hand, which adds to the mystery. It's fun just to look at each of them and enjoy their varied existence.
Well captured with your iPhone.   Posted: 08/22/2020 17:47:11

Love the colors and happiness this photo emits even if it is clowns. I even have the same material in a quilt that the clown on the right has on his or her apron (the black flowered square). Thank you for sharing.   Posted: 08/24/2020 14:52:28

Hi Everyone,
So glad you feel the joy and happiness in this photo. As a matter of fact, I use this image for my recent project to create a musical video that sparks joy. Here's a preview to my video:

Great shot and great video! The colors are so vibrant. Too bad the last clown on the left wasn't a little closer to the middle one, would have blocked out the crowd in between them. Regardless nice festive picture.   Posted: 08/25/2020 09:16:58
