Great work. I would not touch a thing. The texture, composition, exposure, contrast. Its all spot on.

Thank you for your kind words. It's one of my favorites! Posted: 10/09/2026 16:44:15
This is a very engaging image, Sheila. So imaginative!
The detail in each crate holds attention.
My only suggestion is to decrease brightness on the ropes between the boxes on the top row and the last box on the upper right. Or, perhaps a very slight vignette?
A great find! Posted: 10/15/2026 22:23:04

I love the light on the sides and tops of the weathered wooden boxes. The half-hazard placement of the boxes suggests that the boxes are stored at an industrial farm.
I suggest playing with cropping to eliminate the cut-off boxes on the edges. You might also try to lift the deep shadows to bring out what is between the dark gaps. Posted: 10/16/2026 18:11:13

I totally agree with Adi, don't touch anything, great shot. Posted: 10/16/2026 19:10:26
Thank you Bill for your kind words! Posted: 10/16/2026 19:12:56
Very nice! The only thing I can see to change is the horizontal distortion in the lower right corner. This is a strongly geometric photo and the horizontal and vertical lines need to be perfect. Move the horizontal slider until the lower portion of the photo is perfectly level to match the upper horizontal line.
