.... and a little riddle. In this pic I made some edition, but there is an adjustment I would call determinant. Such adjustment can be made with any edition software (even with the most primitive). Wich was, in your opinion, that adjustment?
The techs :
Hi Jose,
At the small size posted....it is difficult to evaluate.....but I will try.Exposure appears right on as does the color. Here, I am not thrilled with the central placement of the 2 boats. The one on the left balances that side nicely.....but the empty space on the right allows my eye to wander. This may benefit from a crop off the RH side and proportionally (or less)......off the bottom. This would balance the image nicely. If possible....do re-post a larger size and I will re-visit this.
PS I will think of the riddle also....on the larger size.
Hi Jose - this is cool - learning a lot from Romans comments - when I first looked at this - I liked it but thought it just didn't grab me for some reason, Romans cropping idea's would improve it a lot IKHO
I made this processing some time ago. So I have made a quick reprocess from the original. It's not exactly the same , but almost...
(BTW the riddle adjustment it's been done)
Hi Alfred, a colors temp change was applied to a part of the image, but that's not the adjustment in the riddle
The one I'm talking about changed the original image in a more drastic way...
First off I like the design of the image though a bit off the right would not hurt. I would lose the tiny black thing in the water just to the right of the right-hand boat.
Your riddle is a tough one as there are no clues. Why don't you post the original before the adjustment was made (and before you give the solution).?

OK, I know it's quite difficult to guess it without the original. And that's the answer. To know how the original was, just resize only the horizontal in a 1: 1.9 relation. So the riddle adjustment I did was a horizontal compression. It works in this pic, though usually such adjustment doesn't work, because you notice it in any familiar shape. When done in mountains landscapes, them get very irreal, but someway attractive..
Hope this riddle thing haven't been irritating....
About this pic I must say I like it now half I liked a year ago when I took it.... and agree it needs a different crop to balance the compo....

Jose, please do not take this personally but a riddle has to have a clue, otherwise folks are forced to guess....

Irritating is a choice (www.thework.com) No need for anyone to go there. Unless they choose to do so.

And I just realized, not only did you not give us any clues you misled us by stating that "Such adjustment can be made with any edition software (even with the most primitive)."
With regards to compressing an image, I do not think that your statement correct.
I am loving it.

Harold, Jose means that he took the image and pushed it together. It is called content aware and became available with CS4. It keeps the important stuff and compresses, conversely you can stretch too. Doesn't work with all images especially when you have stuff close to the edges.
