2018 Project 52, second quarter by Lindsay (CormacD)

I like the color capture in post #18 but in 19 and 20 the colors look muted.

Both great shots. In "walk around the bund" is that an animal at bottom left foreground? I think they could both benefit from raising the shadows a bit.

Thanks Joe, no it is just a piece broken off the tree on the ground. I had a look at your suggestion, thank you, unfortunately I do not have software for selective lightening of shadows. My intent for the first one was silhouette and the second one was an exercise in framing. Cheers...Lindsay

Thank you for your observation, John. I thought I'd post this one as I think it is the best of the Devil's Marbles. Although they do seem to fade out a bit when posted to this forum.

Looks good to me when viewed with the Lightbox option.

Welcome home Lindsay! These are both good but I especially like 4926.

Thanks Bill, it's good to be back home and I was very pleased with the local shot 4926.
