    Default Lioness in natural habitat (Pesky Grass)

    I suffered from the pesky grass syndrome as well :-(
    This was at the Mara in a bit of a harsh light. Tried to recover as much detail as I could.

    Sanjeev,

    This even more peskier grass which would certainly be very difficult to remove, whether it is worth trying I will leave to others to decide, but in all honesty I think not.

    Hi Sanjeev, I think this is your best image to date. Parking the grass issue aside for the moment, the processing looks spot on, it's sharp where it needs to be, colour looks good, whites are not blown and like Rachel's image, you have the clarity in the eye(s). Regarding the grass, you can tone it down quite easily, however it's a minor issue for me. It all works, including the crop!
    This just goes to show how your patience, taking on board the advice given over the time you have posted, how it all comes together (taking the shot, the PP), very well done, big congrats.

    Now if you keep this going you really do need to join.

    Steve,

    Perhaps you would be kind enough to explain how this could easily be done as I suffer from this syndrome quite a lot

    Hi Sanjeev,
    step by step, congrats on your PP ladder you climb.
    Besides the grass , quite nice in terms of color , contrast and sharpness, even if i feel it is on the close border and in some parts beyond to become gritty.

    But keep up with trying the best way to learn.

    TFS Andreas
