Welcome back, jeepgirl! There's a name I haven't seen for a while. (I was still johnf back in those days, but probably at sgi.com) That's a neat shot - photography from a light aircraft can be a lot of fun. But you've got some pretty noticeable veiling haze there. It's pretty easy to get rid of it (the "Auto Levels" command in Photoshop does it, and there are similar commands in other image editors). Here's a "before" and "after" airborne shot I took recently: http://www.jfwaf.com/temp/SF1.jpg http://www.jfwaf.com/temp/SF2.jpg If you try this on your shot I think you'll find it improves it, although it will make the river look a whole lot browner! -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
