Very nice colours indeed Leslie I find the blurred part with strong colours behind the lighthouse bit distracting, especially the brown part. If you would like to crop half of the area behind the lighthouse, the image might look more pleasing

Binnur,
I don't understand. Can you show me (crop the photo)? Thank you very much.

Hi Leslie . I did something like this because with cropping only from bottom, the lighthouse became too centered. So I also cropped some more from the right side. But IMO this image would look really nice without cropping at all if the blur wasn't there. This is just my personal opinion, other members might think differently

I too love the colors but find the blur uncomfortable to the point that it frustrates my enjoying the image.

Binnur,
Thank you very much. This is panning shot. I should have one without the effect and I will search my folder.

This is better Leslie. In this shot, the colours are less lively but you can fix it with PP as you did with the blurred one before anyway. IMO the wooden thing in the foreground and the wires need cloning out . I wouldn't crop it although the lighthouse is a bit too centered in order not to lose the yellow stones on the right bottom corner. They might add to the image when you make the colours more livelier

Binnur,

Thank you very much.
