Alpacas

[BigWorm]

All,

The Skagit County Tulip Festival is on. Today we stopped at a farm that has both tulips and breeds alpacas. Here's a few of the alpaca shots. About halfway through I had an awful feeling and checked the white balance. Sure enough - fluorescent. GAH! So I retook a few. And today of all days I decide to shoot in JPEG because I'm short of storage space. Never again! Anyway, enjoy.

Thanks! Yes, strange -looking things, but they are fun. I got some tips from a pro that was there. Using a D60 and I think a 70-200 2.8L. Real nice guy, some great pointers. Anyway, I just finished with some of the tulip shots. Here they are:

With the flowers, nice shots, but the flowers are sort of ugly. Many imperfections. If you wanted too you could probably edit some of the imperfections out though.

Robert,

Probably so, but I'm not quite that good with PS yet. How does one do that? Thanks for the help!
