A lovely play of colors on the waters. Nice shot.

Autumn's Enchantress
by Myrkva

A very pretty subject with lovely colored hair. The yellow in the background is pretty but rather distracting. I would probably have cropped the left side to the beginning of her hair, I think this would balance the image better and give the appearance of more room on the right (the direction she is facing). I may have also cloned out the little shadow under the nose. Her hair is really beautiful, would love to have seen a shot without the hair band as the collar on the black coat already gives a dramatic effect to the shot.

A lovely image. Love the tone. Don't know if you created the soft effect but would be interesting to see it with more DOF.

Wow, love what you have done to this, really suits the shot. Hope you will include a how to. This should rate pretty high. 10

A very pretty subject but IMO the hands in the hair hasn't worked well here.

Nice idea but the image is to dark (on my computer anyway). The black plate is lost in the black background.

This is a nice sharp shot with lovely colors but I think that crop is rather severe.

Morning Has Broken

I think this could have been a great image but the stump is to dominate. The eye is drawn to the stump and the lovely sunrays coming down from the sky behind have been lost. Composition is always important. (But for all I know that was what you were after :)

Nice colors but the blurring of the foliage is distracting.
