Posted: Mon Jun 27, 2005 10:41 pmPosted: Mon Jun 27, 2005 10:51 pmVery Very nice Big Pix.
IMHO it would have been brilliant if the boat was a litte right of centre and the pelican a little left, but hey this is pretty close.

HI
Posted: Wed Jun 29, 2005 10:36 amVery nice shot. the pelican is too close to the boat. the camera's focus point was not on the boat. Would prefer the boat to be the focus point.

Arthur...... there is NO central frocus point as it is an overall view......I am still on a learning curve with birds and not up to your standed of control of birds, must change my brand of bird seed....... the image shown is part of a larger image which I will post to night
Catcha...... Well spotted.... The sky was put in using the GRADENT TOOL, the image has been created using the RAW processer and saturation after, with a little USM and levels for contrast. The raw image does not show the colours as vivid as posted but they are there and have to be brought out, this is an old image reprocessed using ACR in PSCS2 which I find much better than PSCS, I am finding that I have a much finer control over my images and a greater depth of colour control, the colours are softer and finer if needed, but you can add contrast when you process but I prefer to add contrast later for better control.
Tonight I will post the 2 or 3 steps I took to obtain the image which anyone can do with a bit of patience using camera RAW in PSCS2 or PSCS. This quality of work is within everyones reach.
Cheers
