Re: PESO - A Fun Guy
Thanks for looking and for the kind words, Frank. As for the brand sensitivity, I was unsure whether or not there would be a call for brand purity on the PDML Flickr group. regards, Anthony Of what use is lens and light to those who lack in mind and sight (Anon) On 31 May 2011 06:51, frank theriault knarftheria...@gmail.com wrote: Don't care what it was shot with, it's a wonderful photo.

Thanks Bob. My brother would have known, he's the old hippie in my family, with the special knowledge that accompanies that status.

Maybe you got too close to the toadstool and inhaled Good shot, though. They are very photogenic fun guys. My shot's non-Pentax, should we have a prefix for that? You could label it OT, but I think Pentax is becoming the minority brand on this list. Let's see, we have Fuji, Leica, Olympus, Sony and Ricoh to add to the odd Nikon and Canon. Panasonic anyone?

Re: PESO - A Fun Guy
Thanks for the generous comments to Daves Mann and Brook, Christine, Don, Ecke and Steve. If I have to worry about getting too close to the fungi, then Bill Robb's lenses must be toast. The colours got a little help. The mushroom itself is untouched save for a little levels and saturation, but the grass had some golden highlights on the right that unbalanced the composition and flattened the 3D illusion (warm colours advance, cool colours recede). I selected and re-hued them (PSE8: enhanceadjust colorreplace color) to blend better with the left hand side that was shaded from the golden hour sunlight. Some dark vignette, a watermark and Bob's your uncle, it's more real than reality. If anybody can name that mushroom/toadstool I'll add that to the caption and tags and give you credit for the info. regards, Anthony Of what use is lens and light to those who lack in mind and sight (Anon) -- 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.
