Hi! SK> Ok, maybe "exciting" is the wrong word... You should have heard him chatter SK> though!! Man it was just one step down from an Eagles scream! Those SK> squirrels are magnificent animals!! Alright, fine, that last part is going SK> a bit far... Anyhow I took this photo with a Super-Multi-Coated Takumar, SK> 200/4 wide open to facilitate my hand holding the lens. I adjusted the SK> brightness/contrast, and I used a little bit of unsharpen mask in Photoshop. SK> I'm satisfied with the shot.
SK> http://www.bluehorizon3d.com/PDML/squirrel2.jpg It is not fair to say that you're satisfied with the shot, yet ask for critique <g> (just kidding)... Shawn, I think it is underexposed. It is too dark and too contrasty. Not your fault, but I never thought of squirrels sitting in the dark shadow, on the dark tree under harsh light eating some kind of nut. Nutty thought, I should add <g>... SK> Also, there's this shot I took with the SMC-M 50/1.7 lens. I took it whilst SK> driving down a farm road at 55 MPH so if the quality is off, well, that's SK> why, I have some others, I was going to post them but I figured. Why waste SK> you peoples time??? SK> http://www.bluehorizon3d.com/PDML/farm.jpg This one is rather excellent. At least to me. It is simple, yet good. Just my opinion... Boris ([EMAIL PROTECTED] or [EMAIL PROTECTED])
