Posted: Tue Jan 17, 2006 3:39 pmPosted: Tue Jan 17, 2006 4:01 pmVery, very nice Sheila... Very sharp and I love the colour / texture of the OOF background. BTW... I just downloaded the OptikVerve plug-ins that you mentioned and it looks extremely good... You probably have these already, but I noticed that there are 12 additional sets of effects that you can download in addition to the main software...
Posted: Tue Jan 17, 2006 4:02 pmnice vibrant shot... and a different take on the subject... only criticism would be the blown highlights around the eyes on the rhs.
edit: on my home calibrated monitor the highlights don't exist... ditch the last critique
cheers

Posted: Tue Jan 17, 2006 8:02 pmHi Sheila.
You have captured these pelicans brilliantly. Without doubt, some of the nicest pelican shots I have seen in a while. The birds are sharp, the DOF fantastic, the symmetry perfect and framed beautifully. You certainly have the 'eye' for this type of photography and as with your Narrabeen lakes shot I critiqued, your work is stunning.
Please post more wildlife pics.
cheers

Are they two separate pelicans that you have PP together? Or is this straight out of the camera. I am intrigued!!!
