I've been trying to formulate a response to the "desaturate" train of thought, but I think my point has already been made. There's ~just~ enough colour in the stonework that one knows it's "naturally" captured, and I prefer that to desaturating selected portions of this particular image. Not that partial desaturation is bad, but when "reality" (such as it is) works, why tamper? ;-) Thanks to everyone who commented! cheers, frank -- "Sharpness is a bourgeois concept." -Henri Cartier-Bresson -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
