micpic Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 Wish I could have gotten closer, but the mud was getting the better of me. Beautiful bird is the Great Egret. The white just blows out and these were taken on a cloudy day! Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Almquist Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 Mike the shots are very nice but if you would pull them into Photoshop and fix the whites I think your shots would be great. I took your first one and worked with the whites and was able to get out the detail in the wings.You should be able to get a better picture using the original.

micpic Posted August 30, 2009 Author Share Posted August 30, 2009 Thanks all, Jim I'll try that. I'm still pretty weak in Photoshop but I learn a little more each week.Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Almquist Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 Don't be afraid to try stuff in Photoshop. The only thing to remember is to save it as a copy so you will always have the original to go back to some other day as your skills get better. I have been able to go back to shots I took years ago and fix my mistakes. Heck I am still making them and fixing them today I am not sure what version you have but Scott Kelby has a book for just about everyone with easy to follow instructions on how to do almost everything.
