...forthwith there came out blood and water.

I appreciate the scripture quote. Well chosen, given the lighting. He was crucified in the evening, and this could have been precisely the view as the 3-hour darkness lifted. I hope you get the blue for this. You deserve it for your hard work. Only one flaw above the heel on the post - should be cloned to remove the post-like impression. Otherwise intense, dramatic image. Thank you!

The Red Barn

Comment:
Well framed and perfect subject for this challenge. Good processing. Only the guardrail detracts from the nostalgia created by the barn.

You are all so encouraging to me as I am a newcomer to this community and have so much to learn! I used my 75-300 lens, and so during the shooting missed the dirt, which I was unable to clone out later due to basic editing rules. I was paranoid about it during the voting, and really amazed that almost everyone seemed to focus on the lovlier aspects. Thanks again for so many constructive comments and for a PB on this my third challenge!

Shasta Sunrise

Comment:
Delightful image. Well composed. Given the sky and snow-capped mountain, it is appropriate to underexpose the foreground. I like the way the water reflects a different pov on the trees. 9

Fascinating how the depth of field is increased in the droplet's reverse image. A lovely and enjoyable image: 9.

Quiet Garapata

Great colors. Dreamy mood. I like the flowery foreground, but would like to see more of the far shore. Maybe there were distracting buildings there?
