Very nice, I think it would also look good in black and white. Posted: 07/04/2025 16:14:57
Your composition is spot on. I enjoy the way the moon is framed within the tree. I think you did very well lightening the image and improving the crop. I think that is another tree in the background, left? For me, it provides just the right balance. Posted: 07/06/2025 01:37:29
Dorinda, thank you for your input, and you did point out a weak point of my photo that I concerned about. I completely knew that the tree in the background on the left would balance the picture. However, it was not good to enhance it. On my "real" final, I added a boat to fix the weak point. But, I did not email it to you at the first time because the original did not have it.

I think the boat was an excellent addition. By the way, for PSA and Digital Dialogue Groups it is ok to add things (composite) to your image as long as what you are adding is from another of your photographs. Using something from another photographer's work or from AI is not allowed so it was ok for you to add the boat. Posted: 07/16/2025 23:16:19
The composition is well framed. The exposure is right to reveal the ripples of the water and the cloud in the sky. Posted: 07/06/2025 15:02:16
Nicely seen and edited, Phu! I have nothing to add to the above, except I do think color works better for this image. Posted: 07/09/2025 06:27:23
Nice picture, I will edit the sky part and live the water darker. My opinion. Posted: 07/10/2025 16:55:23
Well done, the Caddo lake area has some really fun locations.
I like the addition of the boat. For me the color pallet suggest late afternoon and HOT.. my one suggestion would be to retouch the light area just above the tree, seem to be oddly brighter than the rest of the sky in that area. Posted: 07/16/2025 18:10:07
