    Thanks for your comments Eric and Pierre.The eye looks soft here,but in the full size JPEG there is pleny of detail and sharpness there.I resized this shot twice before posting and lost detail because of this.Its my own fault and a lesson learned.Thanks again for your remarks,cheers

  1. Thanks for the comments guys.This is a combination of two shots.The sky in the original castle shot was plain blue and cloudless,so I found a shot of mine with clouds which I thought would work and combined the two.I converted the image to B/W and then used a midnight sepia action in Photoshop when the shots were combined.I used unsharp mask to increase contrast and cropped for better composition.I also used some dodge and burn where required.I am glad you like the final result.Cheers,

    Dave

    Thanks for the comments guys.I had about a minute to get the shot,I think he stayed still thinking he couldnt be seen.The weather was warm,but he was in quite thick short undergrowth until I disturbed him while I was hunting for Grasshopper macro shots in the garden.Thanks again for your kind words.
