    It's about composition and colors.
    In this photo it's worked, simple but effective, I like it.

    Thanks!

    I posted an updated version. It's a few posts above on this page.

    Very nice Pete but it looks even better to me if straightened a bit with a bit more contrast applied as well.

    Just some food for thought ๐Ÿ˜Š

    This is the original version showing pretty much what I saw at the time. It doesn't really do much for me.

    With the colour graded version I wanted to highlight the reflection in the water much more.

    Sorry don't care much for this, really don't understand the teal and orange colour grading, too dark, colours don't work. I prefer something more like this from your original.

    Thread is now in the Dumpster where it belongs ๐Ÿ‘. If interested in the rubbish that went on there and you don't have access to the Dumpster you need to ask Alan to give you access

    I only blurred the edges to cover up the very poor job of removing your brother from the image Paula. I thought that because the tractor was important including a bit more was the way to go, but only if a credible job can be made on the removal. Adobe LR now has the Ai removal/fill capabilities in the cloud version and it would look very natural if it works. No guarantees but it does work quickly and results I have seen are exceptional.

    Delightful pastel layer cake of a structure with all its intricacies and delicate touches. I've enjoyed studying the nooks and crannies on this one, and I want to explore it myself! I think it could benefit from a bit of straightening, that bright arch on the right is a bit distracting with the tilt.

    Yes, it could definitely use some straightening. I was having so many issues, it was simply as taken on the phone with zero processing.
