Re: PESO: Wall of Weed
G'day Dave I looked at this first on my uncalibrated Linux partition and thought much the same as Jack (that the image was too dark in the shadows of the weed piles). On my sort-of-calibrated Windows partition there's more detail but I think a bit of selective curves or levels adjustment on the darker areas would improve the image greatly, while retaining that wonderful sky. The intersection of the weed pile with the horizon is a bit unfortunate, however.

PESO: Wall of Weed (v1.1)
Thanks to everyone who took the time to have a look comment on my original Wall of Weed PESO . Seems I was a bit hasty in my PP posting of that photo (I need to get back into the habit of waiting a few days before doing any work on recent shots). Anywho, I agree that the position of the weed so close to the horizon is unfortunate. I couldn't get any higher, or lower, in that location so there isn't much I can do about that. Just for chuckles I've gone back and bumped up the levels in the weed cropped a little off the bottom RHS: http://www.arach.net.au/~savage/Misc/Images/K10D/1_IGP0073_2.jpg Cheers, Dave Quoting David Savage [EMAIL PROTECTED]: http://www.arach.net.au/~savage/Misc/Images/K10D/1_IGP0073.jpg -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.

Re: PESO: Wall of Weed
Actually I have to agree with Jack, the forground seems a bit dark. I just recalibrate my screen, by eye but still the brightness should be alright. The top of the mound merging with the horizon is different and some might see it as a flaw. Seems like it would be better if it didn't.

Re: Wall of Weed
The foreground is too dark on my calibrated monitor. Perhaps a shadow/highlight adjustment might save it. Also the placement of the mount coincident with the horizon is unfortunate.
