Let me suggest a couple of things. First, if you crop down, cut out some of the less interesting parts of the frame, your subjects become more dominate. Also the bits of grass that are between the viewer and rhinos are a bit distracting. I would have no problem cloning them out. It doesn't (IMO) change the validity of the image. I uploaded a cropped version in which I cloned out a couple of pieces of grass just to see how it looks. If you're comfortable with taking the grass out then I'd recommend getting rid of the other pieces. I also dropped the brightness and increased contrast a bit. |

| Justin Watson (Justin) Msg: #2 March 27th 2006 21:52:35 | Thanks, I do like the pose. Fortunately these Rhinos were virtually taking a nap standing up. Had plenty of time to fram the shot. Unfortunately to the left out of shot was alot of that annoying yellow grass. But the crop helps alot, despite being a competent photoshop user, i was always hesitant to crop, but the more i see it used the better i like it. But on a webpage, in a frame or even a photo album it looks a lot better. I'm going to play with removing the grass and post what i come up with. | |||||||||||||||||||||
