for me the animal sits a tad to much in the middle between top and bottom, not the frame!
When you have more space on top have look how it looks when you crop more from the bottom and add more to the top. Just a thought.
Details are great.
Hi Chris nice capture of this hare with great IQ for the combo and techs given !!
I just think the colors are not right for the time of shooting , but this is just my personal feeling . Crop already covered by Anette , agree to that .
With my RP i went to LAB color space for color correction and i moved the hare in the frame and cropped it differently .
Thanks for looking and comments Andreas,like your crop,color,well yours is a shade lighter,but the sun was just peekingit was about 6.45am UK time,and the hare in the field had a pinkish look,having said that ,I like your repost.thanks.
Hi Chris - Another nice hare portrait. Good low pov and details. I agree on the crop/comp suggestions. I do think Andreas's color looks more natural but my reference point is North American hares. I just thought based on your images that European Hares skewed more to red.
ThanksRachel,I have just tried to upload the original Raw file,but it wont let me,the raw file shows the hare to be pinkish,and the other shots I took are the same,a pinkish look.as it was that morning.thanks again.
No problem Chris, you were there. To upload the raw you would need to convert it to a jpeg within BPN's size requirements and then post. BPN only allows certain types of files to be uploaded.
Hi Chris no problem re color you were there and you saw the colors at time of shooting .
Even if you upload the raw file does not mean you have " correct" colors , all cameras do have different color profiles and even all raw converters interpret colors differently .
So in the end you as the author have to be happy with the reproduced colors ....... we as viewers can only give suggestions or like the colors as presented .
So no problem i general if you say the hare did look pinkish at the time of shooting !!!!
Have the same problem late afternoons in the Kalahari- every thing is beautiful in the light, but the histogram has BIG red peaks.. That was the light, but for your audience it is too much.
Here is the predicament- as you saw it, or correct for the audience....
I correct....
Very nice to get one of these so relaxed in the open Chris. I prefer the framing on Andreas' crop as I felt yours was a little too central.
Regarding the colours, it's not very often we can have tis discussion with our light (!) and they both work for me. I had a similar evening with Red deer a couple of years back - looked like a cartoonist had drawn them but thats how the light was at the time, so if that's how you remember it I'd leave it as is.
Hi Chris, like the fact you managed to get close and with a good, low POV. Nothing distracting in the FG/BKG which makes for a clean image, cool, nice fieldcraft.
Taking into account the various replies/feedback, I do think the colour looks a tad off, just fractionally increasing the Temp & then moving the Tint lifer to the left I personally feel gives/offers/addresses some of the points, but just my take.
