Like the photo! And I don't recall seeing any of your photos that are anywhere near atrocious. Don't be so hard on yourself! Your body of work (that I've seen) is of a very high quality.
cheers, frank ps: Bird trivia: Eagles don't sound very majestic or impressive. Red tailed hawks do. They have the best hawkish screech out there. So almost every time we see an eagle in a movie or on tv and hear that screech echoing from our speakers, it's actually a red-tailed hawk doing a "voice over". -f "What can be asserted without proof can be dismissed without proof." -- Christopher Hitchens --- Original Message --- From: Walt <[email protected]> Sent: September 17, 2012 9/17/12 To: "Pentax-Discuss Mail List" <[email protected]> Subject: PESO: Red Tail Hawk (?) So, I've got this spiffy new monitor and I'm going through my images to see how they look, and I'm absolutely stunned at how atrocious some of them are! I'd been using an old 19" CRT up until now and had no idea they were that awful. It's a wonder anything I ever shot came out as a decent print. I wish someone had told me a long time ago. I'm thoroughly embarrassed by some of the photos I thought were fairly decent. That said, I also found this shot which I didn't realize I had. I think it's a Red Tail Hawk, since it's hawk-like in appearance and has a vaguely red tail. http://www.flickriver.com/photos/walt_gilbert/7997746702/#large In any event, I'm still a bit mortified by some of the images I've been publishing under the misapprehension that they're usable photos. Makes me want to scrap my entire library and start anew! -- Walt -- 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. -- 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.
