Howdy Cuong,

Very nice image, good subjects, and I really like the bridge and sky.

I am not very good at critiques, but it's a shame the beautiful girls are leaving the image instead of just entering.

Also, not sure if it could be done, but the path they are walking on would really have a lot more emphasis if it wasn't the same shade/tone as the water, possibly remove the colorization from that in post processing????

Regardless, a beautiful image all around, looking forward to seeing more of your work.

Craig, thanks for the suggestions. The girls were too quick before I realized the potential of the shot. My post processing skill is rather pathetic so I don't know how to really change the tone of the walk way.

I'm inspired by your IR work and try to develop myself in this new area.

What a beautiful location! It seems that you're having fun with IR!

The 200-acre Huntington Library and botanical gardens are a great location for IR photo ops.

I'd have to give you, yes you April, credit for getting me into the IR area. Scott's IR photos from the Glacier shootout using your modded camera really pushed me over the edge. I had my Canon G6 modified by Lifepixel shortly after that. One nice thing about using a modded G6 is that I can see what it looks like on the LCD before I snap the shutter.

Craig,

Taking your advice, I removed the colorization of the path and replaced the original with the newer version. It certainly does look much better. Thanks.

Morning Cuong,

Looks like you did a great job on that, it does look better.

Looking forward to seeing what you have next for us.

It is a beautiful shot Cuong, I think I would have waited till the girls walked out of the scene as they are almost out of it in your shot.

What a beautiful location to shoot.
Lovely Shot :thumb .... Skippy :D
