Formula 2000 Powerboat - Carr Mill Dam

Steve Fitzsimmons, personally I think I've oversharpened it as the water looks overcooked! But the original is intack! This is heavily cropped as well.

Nice shot, but I agree the water maybe a little over done.

I wish you had let me know this was on as I've done nowt today again

This is another crop of the same image, shot in RAW, opened with default options, Shadow/Highlight, Adjusted levels (Dark/Light) options, ever so slightly! No sharpening this time!

As it's RAW, Adobe open dialog box, give a default sharpening option of 25, this was chosen in both edits. Might try setting this to 0 and see what comes out!

certainly looks like it is flying!

need a slightly darker boat so it would contrast that amazing spray a bit more
