Title: Paronella Park - ruins and shadows
Post by: MattNQ on January 29, 2019, 05:50:00 pm
Suppose I better start with two landscapes as this is a landscape forum....
Then a couple with the visible hand of man that now almost blends into the landscape.

Main critique I'm chasing is in image #2 - Is the lighter spot of fungus-looking stuff  on the foreground tree too distracting?

This is a fine set of images.
In #2 I would be tempted to clone out that light fungus spot, even though at first glance I didn't notice it.

Thanks Eric.
I didn't really notice it much either when editing. Now I think it is bugging me  ::)

Three good shots and one (the first) outstanding shot.

For me, the first one is terrific in every way; the ones that follow just speak of an effect.
