Signed on this AM & saw your post yesterday & all the responses. How awesome! Thanks to you, Hero, (and all of you) who intersperse cool photos with thoughts/questions/poetry etc. to get us to think and "talk" to each other. Okay, enough mushy stuff. Back to photos - what do you think of my Popup LinkMarina picture from a weekend trip to Marina Vallarta? Would have made a great "reflections" entry too, eh? Any recommendations on making a shot like this better?

    Beautiful muted colors--very peaceful! My only suggestion would be taking the shot in the landscape orientation too to see what it looked like. I feel like I'm missing something on either side, slightly.

    Yep, Austinspace, you're right - what you're missing in the landscape shot is the gaggle of tourists, the golden arches & a few scattered trash bins that hadn't been emptied this early in the morning. A case of "selective zooming"  :-)

    It's a good pic, but I think if the mountains were a tad bit more "pronounced", it would be better.

    Nice. For making it "better" I think the piece of land in the lower right-hand corner could be cropped out. Maybe some slight contrast or level adjustment as well. Something Popup Link like this. The contrast/level adjustment here is the best I could do at work without PS...

    Your Welcome sball. How nice of you to say. I love the photo and I think Codepoit crop is the same suggestion I would have made. I like the looks of the mountains cause that is how they look in my area at that time of day too. With a slight marine layer in. Very nice!Thanks again.

    As with all outdoor shots, light can make all the difference in the world. Check back at different times of day to see what presents itself. Nice shot!
