Beautiful angle of the head, resolute mouth, softness and bokeh everywhere except those coal dark eyes.

Day 2 - Pigeon House
by Bruce_the_Robert

I think you've done a good job on this. The pigeons stand out nicely and the colours of the wood are rich although there are some very dark areas of the structure. Since you asked for suggestions, I'm just learning how to use PS as well, but you could choose to do a selection layer on the clouds and work with levels or curves a bit if you decided it wouldn't interfere with the main subject of pigeons and structure, or you could just dodge and burn on the background layer. You might also want to reduce some of the unnecessary branches at the sides and around the pigeons with some selective cloning. These are all very subjective choices and that's the beauty of it all.

This is a good lesson that honest and straightforward beauty cannot be hidden by flat lighting, but I wonder what more contrast would reveal.

Beautiful rich and sensuous colors in this interesting image.

The Look

The hand is the strongest part of the image, partly because of the lack of contrast in the other parts. The other parts, including the strong corner light, are noticeable enough to be distracting from the interesting hand but not strong enough to add power to the overall shot IMO. I'd experiment with additional light sources to give natural contrast and then with the sliders to emphasize the different tones that will emerge.

Day 23 - Inside looking . . . in?

This is really nice. The dark tones, reflections, speed blur(?)and filled arches add up to a very interesting and artful photo.

Great shot and toning work. I love busy shots when they have this clarity and subtlety in shading.
