I liked the pose and reflection of this Lesser Yellowlegs, I would have likes a lower shooting angle, but I was on a pier.

Cool pose and reflection! Maybe a bit more contrast.
Very sweet. If you had been lower, I believe that the reflection would have been smaller. It looks as if it may benefit from a small CCW rotation. There is an easy way to check. Use the ruler tool to draw a line from the tip of the bill to the tip of the bill in the reflection. Then hit Image/Rotate Canvas/Arbitrary. If it comes up anythign but 0, then it needs some rotation.
See Fabs detailed tutorial above.
Later and love, artie
You are right about the reflection, good point. Fascinating, I did the ruler tool you suggested and it came up 1.42 ccw, fascinating, thanks!Quote:

Here is the image after using Artie's method of straightening the horizon as mentioned in his original reply. The technique worked wonderfully.Quote:
