I like the framing but would really like to have seen more of the castle in detail.

Comment by dwterry:
The sharpening on this one seems just perfect. The edges are very distinct without much (if any) halo around them.

It still looks like a little bit of banding in the sky. I've also seen banding occur when applying a neat image or a gaussian blur to the sky (usually an attempt to hide noise). If you're doing either of these, you just need to keep it subtle and then the banding will go away.

The halo around the castle really disturbs me. I'm sorry. It does look like an amazing place though - I'd love to visit someday.

Very subtle, yet well done image. I really like the reflections in the glasses. This is an image that take awhile to really see. At the initial view, the composition is strange and unsettling. After seeing the reflection, it pops into understanding. 6

Way oversharpened, unless you wanted those halos around every edge. It looks like the castle is glowing. Also, the composition seems too heavy on the sky. It makes the castle look very small.

Comment by dwterry:
One other potential cause of banding is if you use the hue/sat adjustment and push only the blue, or only the cyan. You generally have to push both of them or you end up with banding.

There's also a slight bit of haloing showing up on the left side. I usually combat that by doing my sharpening, and then using the history brush at about 30-50% to paint out the parts that turned out too sharp.

Nothing screams digital like banding in the sky. Back off on the saturation and you should be in good shape.

Comment by shamer:
Subject is a bit soft & the halo around it is bothersome, too. Great concept, poor execution - sorry...

Comment by emayner:
I think a closer view with less sky would have had a more dramatic effect.
