I also found the rich red of the barn wall pulling my attention out of the photo. You captured a fantastic moment!”īest Post Processing Suggestion Category – Awarded to the member(s) that makes the best suggestion for improving the photo in post-processing. Finally, if the green in the mountain reflection was more of a warm color, it might again make the mountain the star. You might consider some highlight dodging in the clouds and snow in the light and burning the shadows in the darker sky. And painting a cooler, darker version around the perimeter of the warm mountain would make it pop more. “Great light, great moment and great composition! In a perfect world, can you make the mountain in the light even more of the star of the show? Perhaps painting a brighter, warmer version over the mountain and reflection would make it stand out. Not sure if you would make any changes when you look at this again, but I looking at a photo with fresh eyes and imagine what other people’s first impressions would be.” I know I can initially over-edit and then pull back on the editing. When you do that, you could find that you may pull back on some of the sliders. I’ve heard the suggestion that it can help to leave a photo for a few days or weeks, and come back to look at it.

You might want to get even closer to the rock with a wide lens and tilt up a bit. The walls are very interesting around the waterfall, too, adding to the scene. “Nice waterfall, great exposure to get the silky waterfall. And the story is definitely the beautiful smile!!! For me it distracts from the face, especially because you see only part of it and start guessing. The green grass in the back would even compliment her greenish/grayish eyes! I would also consider to remove the drawing on the t-shirt. By this the bright face would be surrounded by a darker background and glow even more. When you put her face in the center (which is totally ok here, because she smiles directly into the camera) I would have set the line of the sand higher (to her eye level). “What a nice natural smile! Sadly for me the picture is cut in half by the sand and so a little bit too much in balance. Here are the winners as decided by the ON1 staff.īest Individual Critique Category – Awarded to the member(s) that makes the most well-thought helpful single critique. Everyone that participated deserves a prize but we only have a few awards to hand out. Over 480 photos were submitted with literally thousands of critiques posted. It was a big success and a lot of fun to review all the photos and comments. Hi Everyone! Last month we tried something new, instead of the coaches doing individual critiques we had the community provide critiques for each other.
