Hi all another old frame from Svalbard ,
this big guy came up close to the shore to check out the armada of photogs , which was lined up on the beach for the Walruses laying on the beach in the distance .

Hi Andreas - These guys can be such characters and the comp works well. I think the IQ isn't up to your current standards but still a very nice image. From my experience, the colors look spot on.

TFS,
Rachel

Hi Andreas -- I agree with Rachel on the IQ thing as per your current high standards but those were the fancy setting days :w3 , but an excellent pose and very nicely done , a good image overall . TFS !

[Andreas Liedmann]

Thanks Rachel and Haseeb for your comments , i know IQ is not at my todays level i think , the reason is i tried something with a plugin :eek3: ...... better stick with plain PS and the plugins one knows about :S3:.
Base image was not 100% sharp , but will try a more conservative version tonight if time allows .

Thanks again and cheers Andreas

This shoot is very interesting and a veny nice portrait.
I think the problem is only in PP
I like much square format

[Andreas Liedmann]

Thanks Artie and Gio for your comments , much appreciated .

Here is a more conservative version , like this better , i also think the IQ is better than OP , stay away from plugs you do not know in the beginning , LOL ! Or use a slow hand .

WDYT ?

Cheers Andreas

Hello Boetie:wave:

RP is superb! Much more alive than the OP, and I like the colours better:) Err...about the title, LOL...Shady yes, but slim?

Love the pink chest and those battle scars, impressive fellow and you captured him so well, lots of detail and expression is priceless - great work my Boet!

We are back from the Kruger and busy looking through our folders, nothing grabs me yet and I take more pleasure in viewing BPN Wildlife than processing:) Would love to contribute but I need some time...

Really enjoyed viewing your Slim Shady character here, wishing you a great evening and we will be in touch soon,

Warmest regards,
