Greetings fellow Sony'er,
Nice shot, a little overexposed, but the color saturation and detail found in the petals o the flower is awesome, the two most annoying parts of the overexposure to me are the adjacent leaves on the bottom left and top right which seem to be almost white, perhaps someone on here could offer you a way to fix this in PS, i think it can be done, I'm just nowhere near good enough to know how to do it....Welcome to DPC and hope you enjoy your time here!

P.S. Where the heck are ya in Maine, for DPC we're almost neighbors!

Greetings,
Wow, great concept behind this shot, I really do like the idea of the mist rising off of the lake, however with the brightness of the glare from the sky, it along with the colors of the boat seem to, at least to me, get washed out a bit....perhaps if you desaturated everything but the boat, and enhanced the contrast a bit, the colors and the mist would both pop out a bit more....just an idea and MHO, still a wonderfull concept!

Church

Greetings,
Great shot, I love the sky in this and the detail in the church, i.e the boards, etc. The only thing I'd change (and this is a minor flaw IMHO) would be that the church appears to be just a bit crooked leaning to the right a bit, otherwise its a spectacular shot!

Greetings,
Great shot, excellent pose, I would like to see this not desaturated though, i think with all the empty space around her, it would be much more impactfull, or maybe just leave her full color and desaturate the background.....

Wow, nice macro of the berries, I see you noted that the background may be too busy, have you considered desaturating the background, but leaving the leaf and berrys full color, I think that would give this image some serious POP!

Awesome photo, the warmth of the colors in the setting sun contrasting with the dark shadows is/are truly awesome, wonderful tones and saturation as well.

Greetings,
For some reason the colors look a little off or fadedon this shot too me, i.e. the dome looks more grey than white and the blue of the sky seems to lack "pop" perhaps these could be correct through PS?? Other than that, this is an awesome shot, I love the composition and angle, looks like something off of a promotional shot!

Wow, a great shot of the boxer, wonderfull colors and color saturation, the DOF looks a little soft towards his hind end, but perhaps that is just my monitor...Definitely one of the best canine shots on here, you should consider making this a print for DPC Prints, or at least posting it in the the individual photo forum for comments!!!

Wow, does this eagle look intense, and slightly pissed off, great detail especially in the feathers. Was this bird wet, or is that just how his feathers look as they seem slightly oily looking, or wet?

Greetings,
While I'm not sure what type of bird this is (perhaps changing the title to help the avarian challenged like myself out might be an idea...) I like the detail in the feathers and the color saturation the photo posseses, very nice capture!
