    Default Snowy Zoom Blur

    Attached Images Attached Images
     
    Last evening I tried zoom blur awith very few success... here is one of a snowy with less than ideal light. I still wanted to post this and get feedback. The settings were -

    40D, Canon EF 75-200 F4 IS +1.2X @ 257mm
    1/8 sec, f/22 Mode: Tv Metering: Evaluative Exp comp: -1/3 ISO: 100 (auto)

    Adjusted Exposure in ACR and applied multiple adjustment layers for level, saturation and selective colors. Used Topaz DeNoise, cropped and applied usm on the final web version. All C&C are welcome...

    I think it is very nice Indranil. I like the angle you have shot from and the eye looks pretty sharp. Wonder about a bit of CW rotation (not my strong suit though)

    Indranil, I love the lighting and the placement of the egret. Colors are lovely:)

    Indranil, I think it's a nice amount of blur and it radiates from a good point. I was thinking a rotation also?

    Nice job Indranil. I like the lighting and colors and your blur is nicely focused near the egret's head. Good work!

    Nice image and application, Indranil.

    I like the lighting, but might have adjusted a little lighter overall. Not much, just a "tweet" ;)

    But as they say ...
