Think Spring

Liked the composition of this picture and it made me think that

spring is almost here. I appreciate any feedback you have and as

always thank you for stopping to take a look.

This is nice, but it is picking up an overall green caste from the surrounding vegitation. I would selectively mask and color balance the flower & butterfly, then the background vegetation to bring out the different colors of the elements. I also masked and dealt with soem hot highlights, and filtered the whole image for noise, then used unsharp mask to bring in edge sharpness. What do you think?

very good pic.congrats

Spencer: you did a nice job correcting the flaws in this otherwise interesting capture. Taking the time to help a fellow pn'er is what makes this site great.

Photonet has informed me you requested my email address. Was there something with which I could help you?

Spencer,

 

Was trying to reply to your critique and couldn't figure it out. I wanted to say that I liked the mods you made to the picture but I thought the yellow was a bit strong - I guess I need to pick up photoshop because I am somewhat limited in the tools I have - I have just started working with Raw Shooter from Pixmantec, will try your suggestions in there if I can.

 

Just wanted to say thanks and maybe I should send you some of my raw images for you to tune up for me :)

 

Regards,

I have photoshop LE which came with my Canon D60 (I think the LE stands for 'Lame Edition', but in actuality, I guess I can't expect it to be like the full version since they are basically giving it away). I'm glad the edit was of some use. I was afraid I might have offended you. I communicate better visually than verbally, so I do suggested mods a lot - I also just enjoy the challenge of trying to make an idea a reality. If I can help with anything, let me know and I'll try.
