Captive Whipsnade on Wednesday

[benjo09]

Went to Whipsnade for the first time on Wednesday and it was a great day out if a little tricky to get to by public transport. The only downside was not getting to see the red pandas. C&C welcome and there's a few more from the day in my Flickr account. https://flic.kr/s/aHskWtTMyK

Love that #7, cool rendition.

Many others would greatly be improved
with mid-tonal taming.

 

[benjo09]

Thanks for the feedback. Can you explain what you mean by mid-tonal taming please. I'm a novice when it comes to processing images. Thanks

Better, I could illustrate… but your edit says "no"!

Settings changed. Also reuploaded without the watermark.

Thanks for that… watermark was not a problem at all!


This suggestion was done on a low res low IQ jpg and
its only purpose is to inspire you…

you could do better with the RAW.

Ah yes the illusive red panda's many people believe they don't exist, but you have to be patient, they usually come down out the trees for something to eat 15:00 16:00.
The only thing that I can see "wrong" with "your" Meerkat, is that a little sharpening and a small lift of the shadows would help.
I go there many times a year and I've yet to spot one the colour of that edit..
