| Bob Wallace (BobTrips) Msg: #1 July 2nd 2005 12:40:27 | This is really nice. Good job. Now let me be a bit critical. ;o) I'd like to see a bit less tight shot. You've got another elephant in the upper right, I think it would have been nice to see its head. Perhaps there's a reason you couldn't. Aside from that I think a bit more room on the right would feel a bit better. And a technical question. Is there a bit too much sharpening? I'm seeing a halo around the elephants and the ground looks a bit over sharp. | |||||||||||||||||||||
| Walt Foster (Walt) Msg: #2 July 2nd 2005 12:54:14 | You're right on both counts... It's been over cropped from a larger shot and was taken/processed while I was still close to the beginning of the learning curve with digital and photoshop. Thanks. | |||||||||||||||||||||

| Ben Wouters (baw) Msg: #4 July 2nd 2005 13:30:29 | Bob, out of curiosity: the focal length showing in the image info, is that the actual lens focal length or does it include the sensor multiplication factor? (35 mm equivalent) | |||||||||||||||||||||
| Walt Foster (Walt) Msg: #5 July 2nd 2005 13:39:25 | It's the focal length of the lens... so with the crop the effective length was around 500. I used the Canon 100-400 IS zoom on most of these. | |||||||||||||||||||||
| Bob Wallace (BobTrips) Msg: #6 July 2nd 2005 17:46:13 | Unfortunately the wider version chops off the rear elephant's head. I think if it were mine I play with a wider crop than the original post and then clone out the partial elephant. I like the crop off the top/bottom in the OP and the post processing that you did on the grass works. | |||||||||||||||||||||
