Eavesdropper

[ayotnoms]

This is a small part of the larger second image I'm posting. The couple can be seen v-e-r-y tiny in the mid-lower-right of the wide-angle. It was taken yesterday at the Yerba Buena Gardens in overcast San Francisco.

I was drawn to the image because I just got the impression the sea gull was eavesdropping on the conversation.

The shots were taken with two different lenses; my 17-85mm and the other a 300mm lens I borrowed from a friend...I got to get me one of those babies!!

Hope you don't find them too boring :-)

...sorry about the zoomed photo. It looks quite ugly.
I guess it's back to drawingboards on finding a posting method that works for me

Really, they are clearer on my computer screen than how they appear here.
:-(

The 1st is very nice. I miss SF, it's my favorite place in the US (and home of the 49ers :)

sorry, I changed the post. I just couldn't bear the poor quality. With all the top shelf images posted in the forum, I felt I had to do something.

The current is an alternative image minus the "eavesdropper".

...still trying to do the right work in PS to improve the clarity of the posting, but still floundering somewhat.

Maybe the moderators will create a separate forum for those of us in need of some remedial help LOL

Good shot, Although I didn't see the eavesdropping one. Would love to see it though.

you didn't miss a thing. If there was a forum labeled "What do muddy images look like?" it would have been in the running for top honors.

If I could have pulled it in its entirety, I would have done it the moment it posted.

thanks for the positive comment on the replacement photo 8-)
