Robin in a tree

[oldgit]

well it is...
one I'm pretty happy with too

C&C welcome

and again with a bit more USM

... yep I think that's better???

 

[..MD..]

i like it but would like to see it slightly lighter if possible...
apart from that nice shot mate

[mmcp42]

quite right too
it's a robin
it's a tree
it's a great picture!

 

[CT]

And so you should be pleased with it too - it's excellent. Being picky just because it's you, it could probably be a bight brighter?

Did you get that 40D you were threatening?

Thanks CT . MD and mmcp

Not yet. Waiting until Monday when the cash back kicks in...

nice capture,second one is better

 

[moomike]

Somewhere between the 1st & 2nd for sharpness methinks & I agree over the lightening but that is an excellent shot mate, very nicely framed & captured

 

[knb25965]

Excellent shot, nicely framed and personnely i like the light.

 

[sawman]

Like it

 

[StuartH]

Sharpness is great but a little under exposed I think...

 

[taxi]

good shots again oldgit

 

[Benroy]

Very nice capture, you've certainly caught him in the perfect pose.

 

[Forbiddenbiker]

Super comp ... slightly dark I agree. I find the second to sharp.

One for the Christmas card shop me thinks.

 

[CT]

The second version is just starting to look a mite over-sharpened. It's a difficult call though sometimes.

Thanks CT. Yes I agree it is a hard call. Now I look at it again after a good nights sleep I can see what you and Moomike are saying. 'tis a tad over sharpd.

(and it's a bit dark)

 

[CT]

I'd guess you were worrying about those background highlights blowing out Paul, but when you're shooting onto the light it's to be expected and you can worry about it too much sometimes, at the expense of the main subject.

 

[oldgit]

Thanks CT.
Your tweaking looks great. Given that you are playing with the tichy jpeg that I posted and not the RAW I have.

Each time I open PS2 I learn something new. Also each time I revisit something I've played with a few days ago, more often than not I see what I could do better.
Life is a learning thingy and this forum definitely helps.
