    Just a quick and dirty processing of an image from this morning. On one of Artie's IPTs.

    Critique and input appreciated.

    Thanks.

    Sincerely,

    Hany.

    Hey Hany, I love, love, love, the wing position of the crane and of course, the fire in the mist. I wish that the bird were six inches forward in the frame so that it was fully in the bright yellow. But still very excellent and likely better than anything that I got.

    Stunner, love the fiery bg. As Artie mentioned a bit forward in the frame would have been even nicer but love it as is. Well done.

    Love the wing position and I am fine with where the bird is in the frame. Well done.

    Thanks. I tried to recrop the image (the difference is subtle) and here it is. To follow in the next post I will post the next frame. I prefer the first frame in either crop far more.

    Thanks.

    Sincerely,

    Hany.

    Hany, You did really great on this one! I love the look of fire and the main birds pose!

    This is the next frame in the sequence. I do like the first image (in either crop) far more because of the wing position as well as the more eccentric location of the flying crane compared to the more central spot on this frame.

    Thanks.

    Sincerely,

    Hany.

    What an image! :cool: the second image is spot on. Love the colour, wing position, light triangle in the middle - simply breathtaking

    Hany,
    Wow! That's all I can say. Love the second frame just a bit more but they are both super. Congrats.

    What an awesome mood you have created here. I definitely prefer the first frame...but the repost works better IMO. The difference between the two is in fact ever so suble, but makes a marked improvement. Your SHC is just so well positioned. This is one to be proud of.

    Actually, this was created on the morning of the "A Blurry Day at Bosque" workshop that I co-led with Denise Ippolito.

    When I saw that fire in the mist was developing we gave the participants permission to create sharp images :)

    What a great image. Well captured. I am not a big fan of the bill intersecting the wing in the image in panel #9. A capture in between the two images would have been ideal...:)

    Best, JR

    Hi Hany prefer the image in frame 7 the colour and light is wonderful and the composition great. Truly looks like a huge fire behind the birds. Well captured.
