Many thanks, Andy. Good to see you!

I am so busy with work and home life, I hardly have time to check in. I do always check for posts from you, and the many other photographers and contributors I admire, but I rarely have time to comment or show my appreciation.

We will someday return to normal, and maybe I'll develop and post process the rolls of film I've taken during this horrible time.

I really like #1. The other two are also quite nice.

I like all three and probably the third the best. I would revisit the 3rd and smooth out the grain more.

I like all three but #1 is my favorite. Really nice pastel colors in that sky!

I see what you mean and will try a coat of Nik Dfine. Thanks very much, Paul!

Thank you kindly. I was surprised by what upping the vibrance and saturation did for the colors that were hiding (the small whitish spot is the area where the sun was, just below that ridgeline)

I like #3. Simple and effective as far I am concerned. The first one is also a go, but for me not as strong as the third one. Also I see no need for the bird in that shot. Just my personal thoughts.

Thanks for commenting, Frank! Yeah, the bird is technically not needed, but sometimes I can't help myself

No 1# does it for me with the natural looking sky. Nothing over done, even the bird looks real. (I guess at one time it was.🤣)
Very nice👍

Thanks Jim! The bird is a brush from brusheezy, so quite possibly it never was real

I really like the attitude of the silhouette. As far as backgrounds go, I like the third, but admit it sort of doesn't fit the apparently lighting. Your bird is a nice touch.

One is nice. Two stinks. Three is very nice. The skies on one and three are realistic but three is better. I prefer the more distant look and extra plant in three. The best composition of all. It makes the bird on one look hokey.
