Hi, Carol
To my eye the church steeple (what steeple? Hmmmm...had to look for it!) simply isn’t a significant compositional element in this otherwise interesting image!

I'm so glad you joined in as well, you have an amazing eye for the technicals and have made some excellent points here! S-

Hi Carol and welcome! I love pictures like this, with layers of subject matter. Not everyone does, and I am accustomed to hearing knowledgeable people tell me to narrow my attention to a single subject. That is worthy advice, but I never follow it, so I will critique your image from the same viewpo...

Theme: Selective Focus

I know I’m taking the easy route on this one but I have another I was working on at home, and will finish this week I hope.

From the blueberry patch (harvest is good this week)

I like this, something about the colors I think! S-

This week's theme: Something About Me I made this mess of a thing from a picture of the country house, a couple of old pictures of me as a kid, a picture of me a couple of weeks ago, all smashed up over a picture of one of the artworks that's been there for nearly a century, one of my aunt's painti...
