Spring renewal

[Dave Woeller]

I know this technique has been done a million times before, but I just like the patterns and textures here. Your thoughts or guideance are always appreciated.

Dave, I also like the textures and patterns. I think you did a great job w/ this.

Perfectly places splash of color on this, Dave. This is very nice as is but my only suggestion would be to continue to play with the levels a bit and see if you can't get more separation between the gray shades. Try making the lights a little lighter and the darks a bit darker - might try some selective burning and dodging. That will only add even more interest to an already interesting image.

Thanks Denise and Julie. Some good thoughts there and I will continue to tweak the file to see if I can get a bit more pop.

Very well done Dave,
The leaf is placed just right in frame, and the texture draws the attention...proud of you...:cool:

[Alfred Forns]

Sweet composition Dave Would just expand the dynamic range !!!

[Joanna Trescott]

Really nice textures. I like the color you chose and the placement of it.

[Dave Woeller]

Thanks once again to everyone for the guideance. I still can't get over the amount of help shown on this site. I feel there is nowhere else that I have been helped and learned as much as I have here. Don't mean to sound gushy, but I truly appreciate the sharing here.

Dave I agree w/ you 100%. I like this site very much and enjoy the C&C's
