Re: PESO - Water Lily in the Rain 2
You might try a horizontal crop from the center. Left boundary just enough to keep the ring from the raindrop on the left; right and lower boundary to keep the leaf just below the flower; and whatever top boundary you need to balance it. That gives you a visual triangle from the three distinct raindrop ripples with the flower at the lower right apex. On 9/5/2016 8:56 AM, Rick Womer wrote: Thanks for the comments.

Re: PESO: Water Lily
Thanks, Bob and Don. Don, I see the spot also. It was really there, in the water. I thought about cloning it out, but then I looked at all the imperfections in the lily pads, and decided once I go down that road, I might never stop.

Re: PESO: Water lily IV
Yeah, we discussed the blown out blossoms. Positive film exposure is fine, it's my wonderful little flatbed scanner. Why doesn't that bother me on an example scan such as this? Because of there being two blossoms, the center area placement felt ok to me. I recently put up a lily shot called "Leggy Lilies" in which I cropped it as a vertical, placing the blossoms at the top and allowing the stems to represent legs. That was too unique for someone and a more straightforward squared off crop was suggested. Simply verifies the range of viewer tastes. Comments are appreciated. Jack --- "P. J.

Re: PESO: Water lily IV
The composition doesn't grab me. The flowers are too centered, maybe cropping a bit off of one edge, or if you want it centered a somewhat tighter crop. The contrast seems to be a bit too high for the subject matter.

Re: PESO: Water lily IV
Marnie, both you and Bruce are right that the blossom is somewhat blown out. When I put it up I touched it slightly with the burn tool, but didn't like the total of what was happening, so backed off. Being a MF positive, the scan was done on my cheapy flat bed. I just checked the film and find the exposure ideal..by my standards.

Re: PESO: Water lily IV
It is the result of the scan. Done on my cheapy flat bed. When I put it up I fiddled a bit with the burn tool, but it wasn't happening, so gave it up. Thanks, again for comments.

Re: PESO: Water lily IV
Thanks, Bruce. I view this as your standard, ordinary, "pretty" shot the impact of which increases with size. A scene that neither offends nor excites almost no one.

Re: PESO: Water lily IV
This is a shot that I would like to see bigger. I'm suspecting that it is quite striking when viewed like that. It also seems to be a bit blown out in the flower - don't know if this is the result of the scan or as shot.
