Shine a Light by Melanie_M

"One of those moments where I would have died happy!"

Yes. There are few times in one's lifetime when a special moment is overwhelming, and so powerful as to transcend life itself. I have had a few moments like this, some were very special.

A powerful image, another to add to your magnificent portfolio.

My compliments.

I think this is excellent from the perspective, but it was shot in the wrong light. Too harsh IMO. Subtle light is better than bold light. Try it at sunrise. No offense intended.

Getting Ready by Anna_W

You know, I have to like this. High key. But, to have found it, to have captured it is unique, different, and interesting.

My friend, listen as I comment. I do not wish to offend. I wish only to tell you what I perceive is the truth. Stop the over processing. Concentrate on the light. Post processing does nothing to enhance an image. The light abides within what you capture.

I recognize that your vision is different from mine. We see things differently. But, frankly, and without offense, I highly recommend that you concentrate on light and let the image reveal itself.

Best regards,

Bill
