Second photo is the original frame (first instagram cut)
Was down in Austin for a bit on a work trip. I've always heard how beautiful the skyline is from the river.
Was a little let down by the clouds, but what can I do!
My two favourite images from my recent night time adventure in Tenerife. Foregrounds and skies were shot separately and blended in PS.
Hi all, I was looking for such a group but see that although there are many members there hasn’t been a single post. Is there interest out there in getting this group going?

Nice one, Shareef! The colour contrast of the flower with everything else is very striking. I find BCAP's edit, especially the reframing, takes the image further again.
Yes Framing Does Change ! Many Thanks `
Hmm... BCAP's disappeared. Again.
Digging your edit, Shareef. The processing gives the image a rustic, old-world feeling that suits the colors and tones nicely - cheers.
Thanks a lot, appreciate that `
Really nicely done Shareef, love the color and tones.
Glad you like it `
Hi Shareef, late to comment but in general agreement with others. I like your restraint in the coloring on this, and the natural frame created by the leaves above and below the rose.
I think Broken's edit brings out the rich tones in the rose, for my own personal taste I would like just a little more 'breathing room' on the left of his crop.
Well done!
I've update the post with the original frame photo and edit, i think you will see the right composition where the flower sets,
Thanks for you time `
Hey Shareef - I don't agree with the gang here. The comments that were here with the vignette before didn't work for me. I would tone down the bokeh a little and then I think you are golden. This is a beautiful image.
So lovely edit ! i think each edit gives slight different mood, this is what i love about editing, we can change the mood of the photos as we like, thanks for that `
I can almost smell its perfume Shareef. Such a beautiful colour !
Glad to hear that !
