Marie-Louise -

 

Like the other two it has lovely light, contast, toanl range and subject, but it feels too cropped, too crowded.

 

 

I agree with Stuart on this. I would like to see more above and below.

Stuart, Paul and Virgil,

 

Thank you very much for the feedback,

 

I'm exploring the possibilities of various layering modes in CS3.

 

Therefore I'm very grateful for your reflections. One gets easily carried away when practising new techniques...:o

I like the cropping - it makes the image look like a series of 5 or 6 separate pictures!

 

But I find the tones rather harsh in relation to the subject matter. The Elmarit is a pretty contrasty lens to begin with, but some more post-processing would bring it under more control:

 

(1) a Shadow Highlight correction, on a separate layer (so that you can play later with different opacities);

 

&/or - of course -

 

(2) a Curves adjustment layer.

 

An intriguing image, well worth a bit more post-processing!

Marie-Louise, I like this very much. I didn't want to comment earlier, because it's taken some time to sync up with what's going on in the image. I love the Cinemascope layout. Real Ben Hurr style film making. The layering is delicate and very finely rendered. I suspect this is a reflection of your interior in some way. Quite lovely filigree, with ancient shadows against strong iconic landmarks that provide grounding & stability. This work in Brave & Bold. I hope you continue to remain invested in these explorations. This is one of the most intriguing images you have posted. It does have a wonderful fragrance.
