Hello Billy and welcome I'm pretty new here as well. I hope you're ready for the deluge of mail - it's a VERY active group, but you probably know that if you've been lurking for a while.
Great photo. Perhaps I'd have cropped a bit more off the top and maybe cropped out the slanted tree on the left rather than your alternative crop which takes a bit off the bottom and a bit off the right. I don't think the alternative crop makes any significant difference to the original. I don't think the scanner has done a bad job - the rocks are not quite sharp on my monitor but you probably couldn't sharpen too much without introducing artifacts into the flowing water. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Brian Walters Western Sydney, Australia On Thu, 8 Jul 2004 16:46 , Billy Abbott <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> sent: > >I've been lurking for a few weeks and thought I'd post a pic and wee >introduction. > >I've only been taking photographs for a couple of years after a gap since I >was a kid, and was introduced to Pentax gear by Steve Jolly, who appears on >this list from time to time, who only got me to get Pentax stuff so he could >pinch my lenses... > >Anyway, this is one of the pictures from my first attempt to do funky things >with water and long exposures. > >http://cowfish.org.uk/paw/waterfall.html > >If anyone is going to say "you need to do a better scan" then, yes I do :) >Thanks to whoever posted about the new Epson scanners coming out next month - >I now have one of them on my shopping list, and my scans should become better >after that... > >Comments/advice much appreciated. > >billy > >-- >When you say things like that, do you actually believe other people know what >you mean? > Billy Abbott billy at cowfish dot org dot uk > ---- Cool Things Happen When Mac Users Meet!
