Rusty Paint

[Cheryl Slechta]

Another shot from under the pier in St. Augustine. I loved the slabs of paint and rust that were peeling off of the pier posts. I used Topaz Photo Pop, Nik Detail Extractor plus Sunlight the warm up the temp a bit. And cropped for composition.
Thanks for looking. Comments and suggestions appreciated

I think I should crop a little from the bottom

Cheryl, I like it like it is. Really like it. There's a great combination of colors, a strong diagonal, and wonderful texture. I wouldn't crop the bottom because that would interrupt the flow of rusty colors taking the eye back to the left edge. This should be framed and hanging somewhere. WOW.

Cheryl, I wouldn't crop any off the bottom, I like the curl and the small buffer to the edge. Nice eye for this one and I love the way you processed it.

I love this, Cheryl! Comp and processing are perfect.

Wonderful -- I love things like this! I do think a little off the bottom would simplify the path the viewer's eye takes through the image -- just enough to eliminate the red-orange along the bottom left edge. Maybe even a little less crop and a little cloning to get rid of the triangle that would remain in that corner.

If those voting for the bottom crop mean only a sliver, then ok. Love the curl. Love the colors. Well done!

Thanks, Hazel. I was thinking of a sliver
