Hello gang,
I posted this in another forum, but love as much feedback as possible.
I was lucky enough to see a great gray owl last night and she (I think she) flew to another perch; I got a few shots off as I tried
my best to follow her.
I wanted to get rid of the tree in the back so tried to clone it out as best I could in RAW and then lowered the structure as well in processing.
Just don't want it to look like work was done; so if I'm not seeing something in the background please let me know. I may use the original
for a nature competition, hopefully it doesnt blow the image.
I also in the original darkened the background more to make the owl pop; but maybe I went too dark? The second is just slightly lowered in the background using a
RAW Mask.
Thanks!
Paul
For the record: Sax Zim Bog; I'm a couple of hours away, and in summer there are not 50 photogrpahers on the side of the road, just a million bugs.
