Definitely part of the fun of posting a topic open to feedback and opinions. And, therefore...what appeals about #1, Mr. M? 😊

It's the softness. Negative clarity. It is awfully small to really examine. I don't know if the delicateness has been accentuated with some sharpening or not.

Thank you, Mark! I realized after posting that I had made too small for UHH download (that copy was intended for Create 52). I well remember your explorations with negative clarity and I enjoy the look quite often, almost as much as "glow" It's the softness. Negative clarity. It is awfully small to really examine.

I did not sharpen, though there is some automatically applied in ACR. I'll climb out of my recliner and post a larger pic + the original before the day is over. Thanks again!Jan 11, 2021 15:15:26 #

Very nice images, and I agree with NJFrank about the Japanese feel to #2. You might try pushing it even more to look sketch-like. . . .and have you tried a tighter crop on #1?

Thanks very much for your time! I haven't cropped #1 any further, but I'm just about to post a full size with only the ACR edits, so please feel free to play Very nice images, and I agree with NJFrank about the Japanese feel to #2.

1. ACR edits only.
2. and 3. what I did in PS Elements ACR. The sharpen and noise adjustments are automatic and I usually don't even think about them because I went so many years not remembering they were even there
4. The additional edits using Nik Color Efex.
Questions welcomed! Feel free to play with the jpg.
