Re: Tiny sensor revenge gallery thread!

Nice bimbos, Henry! Reminds me of the song - "Nice face, shame about the legs" :D :D

Re: Deer winking at me

Must be honest - I originally only saw the further back deer's bum. And thought " O.K. to each his own....." But they're nice shots even if the wink is not quite there...

Re: Halloween "Trick or Treat" - Family Style

Glad you enjoyed yourselves! Until maybe 20 years ago, here in England Halloween was not "celebrated" that much but now the advertising conglomorates have taken over and we're all subjected to being forced to buy candy to satisfy the hoards who come to the door. As an additional request, c...

Re: Night Time in Liverpool

Well done. Given the EXIF info, I assume a tripod or else remarkable! :) Well worth posting.

Re: Tiny sensor revenge gallery thread!

Valery, nice shots with a telephone, especially the autumn leaves. Regarding Sury's comment, undoubtably the plinth and leaves are lacking in definition but..... it is a tiny sensor image! A little PP could help but apart from removing the fingers......

Re: Tiny sensor revenge gallery thread!

Henry, I like your leaf. Also enjoyed your dead umbrellas. They make good subject matter! My leaves shot with a KM A2 and SERIOUSLY modified in Lightroom... Same shot different interpretations. http://tonysx.zenfolio.com/img/s3/v8/p625156929-4.jpg http://tonysx.zenfolio.com/img/s9/v2/p979161413-4.jpg

Re: Adaptation at its best

Sury, I use Lightroom and in the top right corner when editing an image, there's an "Adjustment Brush" which allow one to 'paint' over parts of an image.

Re: Adaptation at its best

Sury, an excellent modification to you 1st image but... as a suggestion you needed to enhance the bird only. When I process an image I'll play with all the sliders before reverting to the original and then applying mods. Using Lightroom I can apply modification to isolated parts of the image.

Re: POAS Volcano Natioanl Park, Costa Rica

Agree with Dusty regarding #2 - perhaps a bit too much HDR. But #1 is excellent.

Re: Autumn Mists

Nice shot :!: Although I wonder why you have displayed it as something out of a box brownie? Surely either B&W or a true colour image would be more impressive? And STILL not critiicizing (honest :) } a little more contrast and sharpening could maybe improve it?
