Beautiful work. Your D850 has enough DR for one shot for that image? :-) Just wow.

Awesome perspective and shot Ton! It is great to see your new perspectives on the icons!

I am not sure if you are on a 4K or 5K display (I am guessing) but because of their pixel densities they do not show true detail. I did not believe this and thought I could find a workaround so I bought the Newest iMac about a year and a half ago, and then found that I could too easily over sharpen my images but not see it (so I sent it back). This same issue is becoming hugely problematic in fine art printmaking where about 90+% of people sending their files for print are over sharpening them, but they CANNOT see it on their end. This is one of the main subject matters master printer Robert Park (Nevada Art Printers) and I are having to address in our "The Ultimate Fine Art Printmaking Workshop" in Vegas. Having said that, I see a lot of over sharpening halos in your images. I am not sure what type of sharpening protocol you are using? Or what monitor you use? But the image looks great except the edges where there is a very strong halo artifact around a lot of your main subject matter. If you can not see it, then that might be the issue. If you can see it, have you tried keeping a non or much less sharpened layer below the sharpened one (in Photoshop) and tried erasing out the halo?

I only bring this up because I enjoy your work, but I am distracted by some processing issues. You seem to work very hard at your photography, so it seems you might be interested in improving your web presentation too? If you need any help in this area, let me know (just message me). It is what I do for a living... I'll usually give someone a short free session with no obligations whatsoever, demonstrating what they might want to learn. Then if they want continued help it is usually available. I am actually overwhelmed with work, so I really do not need more. But when really good photographers are needing or wanting help, I love to help when I can.

At first glance I liked it and knew someone would hate the treatment. I’m not snarking at Mark as I understand the point he’s trying to make. The image is gorgeous and I love what your eye saw and how you passed it on. Is it “over-sharpened?” FWIW, the image looks great on a current model iPad. Will it print well? How about large? Can’t say. I think I could do a decent job of it on my 3880 but it certainly wouldn’t be master print maker status. I suspect every newly emerging ability as it hits the photograph makes things weird, causes paradigm shifts, and in general runs amuck in what we know. Regardless of any technical discussion we might have, this all boils down to the fact that none of us have any clue how another sees the thing we’re looking at. Really, what is that golden star blossoming from that gnarled stump? So seriously, you haven’t made a mistake. No, you perhaps saw differently than some of us. I like it and if I’d have created it I’d be proud.

Beautiful quality, but I see too many distractions in the background. The tree and the sun flare are great. But I get caught up in the background. Maybe a few steps left or right would have cleaned this up.
