I've tweaked this image as well and put it where the original was. The details in the covered bridge rafters is much better now. P. J.

Re: PESO -- Untitled VI
I'll try a b&w version. Once again I've noticed that the image is much darker on this machine than on the other. I'm going to tweak this one a bit before I convert to B&W there's lots more detail in the rafters of the bridge. Rick Womer wrote: >Dunno, Peter.

Re: PESO -- Untitled VI
Dunno, Peter. Framing the barn through the covered bridge is a good idea, but doesn't quite work. Is it because the frame made by the crossbeam on the bridge is square and the barn isn't? Might it work better in B&W? Rick --- "P. J. Alling" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I'm not sure I really like this little photo, but > I'm sharing it > anyway.

RE: PESO -- Untitled VI
Is that a covered bridge? I have some pictures somewhere of something very similar in North Carolina. My pictures are similar to yours, if my memory serves me. I was not there long enough to be able to pick the right position, light conditions etc. to make anything more than an 'I was here' photo, which is what yours feels like. Not sure how Clint Eastwood made a National Geographic career out of photographing them... -- Cheers, Bob > -Original Message- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On > Behalf Of P. J.

RE: PESO -- Untitled VI
Hi P.J I have seen good results with noise reduction software on some of my landscape shots but seldom on skin. It simply makes it looking like plastic in the default settings of the software, maybe reducing its strength would help. The same is true for your picture despite being not sharp, the skin does not look natural to me Would be a nice snapshot otherwise. greetings Markus > >>Subject: PESO -- Untitled VI >> >> >>I took this the local coffee shop.

Don't ask me why, I just do. Oh yeah, her eyes - actually both of their eyes. Canon Girl's looking at her friend, and friend looking down. Interesting juxtaposition between the two of them. Nice capture - too bad it wasn't b&w (I know, I say that too much, but really, all that colour just detracts from such pure scenes, IMHO).
