About the Image(s)
I caught the sun at just the right moment. The concept was to have the sun rays visible against the red soil. This is not the most exciting image but would work well in an exam room of a doctors office.
The work was done in ACR. Adjusted the exposure, clarity, color, etc. Spot removal and export was done
in Photoshop.

Victor, I could definitely see this hanging in a dentist's waiting room! Your choice of colors works very well, and the sun rays are well-captured. Nicely done. Posted: 02/08/2025 16:17:20
Victor, this is a beautiful capture! The sunburst effect is well-executed, and the warm tones of the rock contrast nicely with the deep blue sky. The composition is simple yet striking, making it a very calming and inviting image. Posted: 02/09/2025 13:53:39
This is a very simple bur effective image. Your processing has brought the best out in the image. I have no suggestions for improvement. Posted: 02/11/2025 11:41:51
Beautifully contrasting colors Victor and love the starburst too. My only thoughts are around relieving the fairly uniform lighting. Eg use an oval mask to brighten the middle zone of the image. Or starting with what you have now, darken the top and bottom of the frame Posted: 02/11/2025 19:37:52
