Looks pretty nice; I like the definition around the bricks.

Take your original, un-cropped photo, print it low quality; then using envelopes or pieces of cardboard, cover parts of the image, until it looks right to you, usually a rule of thirds configuration occurs. Tel you what, with your implied permission, I will crop it for you. By the way the plywood door really wasnt that bad and the brickwork is fascinating.


Sure, go ahead, thanks.

Try symetrical asymetry. Crop viewer Right side of photo vertically about twenty percent. Experiment, the shutter is too much centered. Maybe even forty percent. Start with original before any cropping, and have the shutter almost to Right edge, the adjust.

The balancing of the textures, colors and forms will be enhanced, and less like a "snapshot", heaven forbid. A very nice capture.


Whoa, adjusting "symetrical asymetry" is completely new to me. I'm not sure my Elements 2020 has that capability, but I'll do a help search and give it a go if the program is capable.

Wow, I love it, especially the boat pictures.

It appears that the crumbling structure has some historical significance. What's the history behind this place?

I just saw the original and think I like it better if it was just straightened a little and maybe darkened a little. And maybe not quite processed so much.


Here's the original, unmolested, straight out of the Camera. The doors/windows are perpendicular to an imaginary horizon. lf I straighten the sidewalk relative to the horizon then the doors/windows will lose their perpendicularity.

Ok, I've cropped the plywood out of this photo and adjusted the color saturation a bit; does this look better?

Very nice shot with a lot of potential. I would like to see more color saturation and contrast and, crop off the gray board on the right.


Thank you for the comments!

I'm just now learning my way around Photoshop Elements 2020, so my skills are not the best. I'll give it a "go" and re-post.

Calvert is a small Texas town that is struggling to hang on. This photo is the south side of an old building on main street (highway 6).

Jason, I believe it's 20MB.

Regarding the maximum file size that can be uploaded to this site, I found that 14MB would not upload. Perhaps I'm doing something wrong?

If anyone has suggestions on how I can upload large, >10MB files, shout out.

Thanks!

Jason, this one is a bit more difficult due to the predominance of red in the photo. However, you can see a bit more detail in the green doors, as well as some of the brickwork. These adjustments bring out the slightest variation in tones due to the textures of the subject. You did quite well.

Most digital cameras are very sensitive to the color red. Due to that and the small file size, some artifacts showed up in the processed image. A number of UHH members will comment requesting that you check the Store Original box prior to uploading the file and then post that original file.

Thank you for the feedback. I'm just learning how to work with Photoshop, so tips and criticism are certainly welcome. And yes, I will store the original file from now on.

What is the maximum file size that this site will accept?
