The scene you’ve captured is wonderful, yet the narrative at the bottom is overshadowed by the magnificent sky above. To bring more focus to your story, I recommend a 16×9 cinematic crop and reduce some of the sky to place greater emphasis on the story unfolding below. Once fixed, please repost for consideration for a Photo Award.-

Excellent travel portrait, Sharon. Initially, I thought reducing some sky, similar to your other post, would highlight your subject more. However, upon a closer look, the converging cloud lines superbly lead the eye towards the centre, enhancing the composition. You might consider adding an extremely subtle vignette to…Read More-

Beaunard, the first image, presumed to be the wide or contextual shot, is beautifully executed. The contrast between the people below and the vibrant colours, the layering from top to bottom, and particularly how the people below juxtapose against the mannequins in the top window alongside the shapes and colours, enrich the…Read More

I’ve always liked this picture. Great monochromatic colour palette and perfect angle to emphasise the height of the stack.

This was taken in the early morning into a rising sun. I needed to retain enough data in the shadows to give a bit of detail hence the high shutter speed. I had taken a number of fairly boring shots when the bull decided he would come to the party and complete the c…Read More![]()

Beaunard, your photograph captures a compelling scene, and you’ve done an excellent job. To enhance the focus on the majestic locomotive, consider cropping a bit of the space at the bottom. This small adjustment could further emphasize its grandeur. If you’re interested, we could explore additional editing techniques like…Read More -

Photo was reworked, cropped at the bottom and right and new version uploaded. Looking forward to advanced editing techniques as suggested.

I am an amateur/enthusiast/hobbyist photographer looking to improve my technique and find my style. Right now, I enjoy all types of photography. I lean more towards the challenge of street photography and enjoy the mix of technicality, composition, and creativity of studio work.
As an educator and Vice-Principal of BMT College, I get to do what I love, by creating opportunities for people to learn and improve their worlds.
I absolutely believe that every one of us has infinite potential, but that our purpose for existence is only a fraction for ourselves and mostly for other people.
Focus on and enjoy the process, the work, the grind. Have fun. The rest will follow.

Sharon, your photo caught my attention—I had to do a double-take to realise that the buildings were reflecting in the water. The colours, distortion, and repetitive elements captured in the reflection create a captivating visual experience. Congratulations on earning a weekly photo award!
