I'll try... but note that I'm probably calling it the wrong thing (i guess
"artifacts" is a specific term, should've used another). Anyhow, what I
see is that each bird seems to have like a "digital glow", for lack of a
better term... like the "buzz" lines you see around alarm clocks drawn in
cartoons. There's probably a term for it, but I haven't a clue. I
double-checked, and it turns out that I see it on my laptop as well, but
it's not as pronounced. Maybe it's an LCD thing... I haven't a clue. But
wow... now you have me wondering, am I the only one that sees it? It looks
like a digital photo from 5/10 years ago; or a photo taken with a really
cheap lens (which I know it wasn't). In addition, nothing is particularly
in focus / sharp. I can barely make out the eyes, or any other details, on
the landing heron in the center.
None of the other photos in Bill's gallery have this problem (the others
are quite nice, in fact)... so I'm figuring that it's gotta be the photo.
Lemme know, Paul.
