As per suggestions (and thought both Ann and Jack made good pts too about light grapes drawing eye to light left corner), I darkened the left corner (but no blur) and burned down the grapes a little. I like a little light in that area for center of interest. Better? http://mapphotography.com/PAWS/pages/wineII.html ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------ Really like this Marnie! Forgive me, but I'm one of those weak picky types who couldn't resist giving that lower left sun struck bit of vine a couple of clicks with the burn tool. Just keeps pulling my eye to it. Jack Really like this Marnie! Forgive me, but I'm one of those weak picky types who couldn't resist giving that lower left sun struck bit of vine a couple of clicks with the burn tool. Just keeps pulling my eye to it. Jack I like it--lighting and colors are very nice, and the composition is very effective. Cheers, Rick In a message dated 9/1/2013 10:43:22 A.M.
