I must saw the edit made a huge difference on this! I didn't expect you to be able to pull out as much as you did, in fact. The gradient in the sky really makes this shot. One thing I noticed is some areas right around the trees that need a little more cleaning up - there are some tonal differences that you can see fairly easily.

Moth 1 No Edit PAD.jpg
by MelonMusketeer

Comment:
I am a big fan of moths - this is a polyphemus moth, named for the head cyclops in the Odyssey. The cyclops, as you probably know, had one eye, and his name was Polyphemus. Hence this moth, with the "eyes" on its wings. I think the PP you chose is interesting. You did a good job of removing your finger. I might brighten up the area around the moth's abdomen just a tad. A very nice specimen, BTW - not tattered at all!

I think this photo would be fantastic with the whole tonal range between white and black. It looks a little washed out, and I'm not actually seeing much grain here. Interesting subject. Would actually like to see this one in color.

Pointilism Bench

Comment:
I'm a fan of pointilism, and like that you took this challenge a bit further and moved it into a different realm. Unfortunately, I don't find enough interest in the subject for it to work for me. Hope you'll try this with some other subjects - a really great idea.

The Moment Before I Walk Down The Isle
by PurpleK

Comment:
Not to nit, but by any chance did you mean "The Moment Before I Walk Down the Aisle"? I wasn't sure if it was an intentional play on words? Anyway, really beautiful shot. Love the frame job and muted lashes.

Simple and lovely, though I'm not sure the grain adds anything to this photo. Your lighting is superb either way.

Very cool! Love the creativity in this - I bet Hitchcock would approve :-)

I love environmental portraits and this one is well done. I love how the focus is on the bottles and not the face.
