Drew i just spoted that, it looks like it has imo,

also cris there is some Green Fringing on the top when you look at close, just to point it out,

dan

Yes, there is. What would cause that? Im sure I only tweaked a bit with the levels and sharpness. Would it be that?

Genrrally most shots contain soem fringing, itd from the Lens/Camera combo most of the time, i suffer from Cyan and majenta on mine, Some one more techy will tell you, But i thinik its Cromattic Abberation? very correctable in photoshop though,

Thats my downfall,no decent PC (only have a netbook) and no photoshop. Hope Christmas will change that!

Chris - what (software) did you use to edit out the twig?

[DigiDiva]

I use pixlr but struggle because of the tint screen and the rubbish resolution. Will give it another go and post it up again.

Here it is with the twig cloned out.



Next time I take something like this, I might use my newly practices stacking, to try toget the whole photo pin sharp.

digi did you get any shots in b/w

[DigiDiva]

Andy I never shoot in B&W but usually convert post processing

[Drew Smith]

All things being equal it's better to shoot in colour then convert to B&W as there is a greater tonal range to work with.

I agree and have never yet shot in B&W. I would love to shoot in RAW but no software to support this. I can't even upload (or is that download, I never remember???) the disk that came with the camera, not having a disk drive. I was given a link in a previous thread to download it but sadly, it was an update and was of no use.

I have been saving avidly for a PC/'real laptop' and for photoshop but my son's engagement and wedding, planned for next year seems to have put pay to that idea. Was hoping christmas might bring me something of that ilk but both me and hubby will now only be exchanging token gifts this year, due to the wedding fund! Never mind, each time I take a picture, I learn and once I do have the required equipment, I can re-visit favourite shots and do the PP then.
