XTi + 400 f/5.6, f/7.1, 1/500, EC 0, ISO 400, taken on October 31 in the San Francisco Bay Area. Darkened in DPP on the raw side and then lightened with curves on the DPP RGB side, leaving a few hundred pixels (out of almost 700,000) with R=255. USM applied in DPP after scaling to Web size. Any comments would be most appreciated.
Hi Flavio - sweet light - love the late afternoon glow. Whites mentioned in your self critique, I think I would loose the reflection, not that strong and give it more of a pano crop - think it will make it a stronger image.
A little CW rotation?? To make the water circle appear straight??
Would also clean up some of the water if your comfortable with that.
Hi Flavio,
I like the low capture angle, and the sweet light...agree with Mr. Peters sound advise. I would recommend on cropping from the bottom just below the dark pebbles, and clean up the loose ones in the water. Looking forward to your next one...:cool:
Love the golden light and the determination pose. Your bird is sharp as well. I agree about cropping off the bottom, even though it will cut off the environment.
