You will wonder how you ever managed on a slower machine wants you get used to the new one. I bet using the laptop won't last long.

With luck I will be able to get up to speed with what you are doing. But I will be able to keep in touch for the benefit of others. Once Big Bertha is set up that will nuturally be the main machine.

Great job on the weeds by the way. I did not think that could be done so well and so quickly, in fact at all if it comes to that.:)

I nice touch Christine. The treatment has added detail to the foreground which, in turn, has added depth to the picture. Don, a really beautiful picture.

All I have done is the following.

1. Duplicated the layer then did a little burning and dodging of the highlights and midtones. Softened and burnt the forground in a bit.
2. An adjustment layer and added +22 saturation.
3 A little Unsharp mask.

Don, what screen have you got.

I'm looking for a 20" widescreen, was going to buy the Dell "Super Sharp" one, but now I'm not so sure as I now quite fancy the Formac Gallery Xtreme 2010 20.1" TFT 12ms 700:1 (1600x1200) (DVI) Monitor. It's also approx £80 cheaper.

At present I'm using a 19" LG, I'ts ok but as the resolution 1280 x 1024 is the same as a 17" and all the images look a little noisy/grainy.

Don another variation on the bee

Harry,

Been doing a comparison with your gallery pic, and I think this is better.

Detail is AMAZING.

Thanks Don I took several photos before it flew away, have only just got around to processing all of them. I think the one that I posted here is the best of the bunch.

Mighty pleased with my new flashgun

Harry,

I think this is a gallery MUST. Compare for youself.

Don

Harry,

Just out of interest, do you have to do much post processing, other than when you do your stacks. My money would be on NO.

Don
