Final PP work on Circle of Water
Posted By: Jimbo, 12-10-2008, 06:13 PM

I have worked this photo a few times and it was suggested I crop out some on the left where the road was.. This is my final re-work.. moving on to new and better photo's.. hard to please everyone's eye.. cheers JIMBO

That is a very good final re-work Jim and it is impossible to please everyone's eye..... take care,

I'm not everyone either, and I think it's quite dramatic. Excellent work Jim!

Marc

I have a earlier post with the orginal on along with my 8th re-worked. I think it is Circle of Water two.. or something like that. Should be on the first page. Thank you for looking. JIMBO

Thanks Henrich.. along with the crop on the left, [which you also suggested a slight crop.. thank you] I add some of the reflection of the sky to the bottom left to even it out. Always appreciate your comments as I really enjoy all your work. JIMBO

Thank you and after going through all the version and getting some very good advise, I ended up with this one and I am happy. I want to think a few people were involved in the process. JIMBO

Thanks JMR and than you for your comments which in the end I believe did help the end product. Thank you again... You have a great eye for detail, as does Gary. JIMBO

Thank you Marc for your kind words. I think what I end up liking most about the final picture that I was willing to listen to others and give it a try instead of being my old self and saying "what, looks good to me" Always enjoy your comments as you are honest about my work! JIMBO
