Image thief! You got it. I've already made a coupla thou' on this one. Wanna buy a print? - I'll sign it for you an' everything.. (O; Here's another one that has been reduced. I just used plain old Bicubic on it. http://www.pbase.com/bret/image/90940773 Composition wise, that one is better - the rain looks great! pity there aren't a few more on the other one (heheh, easily fixed...) But, let me use my super-x-ray-vision.... I'm thinking that second one isn't as sharp around the eyes/head and may have even got a little selective ps help. The reason I say that is - his backside looks very sharp, but his neck and ears don't.. So it gives the impression that you mighta used the sharpening tool on his face.. Do I get a cigar, or is my detective work at it's usual low standard? (O; |

You could have at least done something about that rotten white-balance that your camera created. A deer's coat isn't magenta. Get your monitor adjusted, or get a better camera, or something. How about some talent, see if you can buy that somewhere while you're at it. I think you need a new monitor or lessons in setting it up. What a waste of time. At least you realise you are. -- Neil reverse ra and delete l Linux user 335851 |

By the way, I will give Bret an additional plug - check out the folder
to which that image belongs: http://www.pbase.com/bret/racmtn There are some *very* good images there. (I'll rudely say that they are mixed in with some that I wouldn't have displayed, but never mind - that's what thumbnails are for..!) But one small note - Bret, how can you criticise jpeg artefacts and then post this: http://www.pbase.com/bret/image/51947453 ???? I expect you to fix and repost this immediately, and write up 50 lines: I shall always check the resized and compressed image before posting..

When you are use to soft images from your film scans any decently sharp image will look over sharpened to you. In this case we are looking at a 100% crop and it is very sharp for a 100% crop, but down size a bit and it would look "over-sharpened" to your eyes. Scott I've got about 150 shots just like it, or much better, taken over the years with P&S cameras. What was the point of posting something so ordinary that anyone can do with any camera? Just to waste our bandwidth? To appease your need for attention? I don't get it. You could have at least done something about that rotten white-balance that your camera created. A deer's coat isn't magenta. Get your monitor adjusted, or get a better camera, or something. How about some talent, see if you can buy that somewhere while you're at it. What a waste of time. Magenta? My monitor does not show any magenta in the deer's coat. -- Len |
