The Istanbul light (need some C&C)
Hi everyone!
I did my best for this one, but it looks like the picture can be better, but I can't understand what to improve. Any C&C are welcome!

A couple of old photos taken while the Amtrak was stopped - somewhere in Colorado, I think?
(And yes, I like that the vertical leans!)

Black Leopard
This female has arrived at Hamerton. This place rescues animals from all over the world, mainly endangered species, and they breed when they can.

Leopard spots and high heels
I've photographed Ady a few times now. We get better each time as a team. This image was a fave from our latest session. I hope you like it to.

look into luminosity masking you can do a ton to bring out the best parts of the photo look at greg benz and sean bagshaw on youtube
Oh, luminosity masks are already there! :)
wow...then i would make adjustments to the city itself the sky looks good i wouldn't touch that. the city gets a bit washed out probably due to the brightness of the sun i did just watch a tutorial that had a similar issue

it is true that the image seems to be lacking a bit of contrast... I did some global adjustments in Adobe Camera Raw. Another step would be to just adjust the city with a gradient.
