MattyO,

I crop out the lower out of focus branches, they distract from an otherwise really nice koala. If you took this in raw, look at boosting the exposure a bit, looks just a tad dark.

Cheers,

André

nice and sleepy like Koalas should be. Agree with MattyO re: out of focus branch.

it wasn't taken in raw, but you can adjust the exposure in photoshop.

ive done that and a few other things, heres the outcome...

Your re-do of the PP’ing has certainly made your pic a lot more acceptable :)

when you say its alot more acceptable, does that mean it was unacceptable to start with and now its less unacceptable?
