Nice shot...

John

Thanks!

I've just started using Lightroom (and was quite happy with the results for that photo), and I find it to be a much more natural tool than I thought - I wasn't overwhelmed by the options/toolkit. I've been using DPP for a while, and just not quite getting that "pop" that I expected.

Here's a shot I just re-edited using LR:

IMAGE: http://i868.photobucket.com/albums/ab246/shinksma/Wildlife%20and%20Nature/IMG_3098LR_1024_zps35665412.jpg

And here's the older shot (slightly different crop, but that's because my taste for cropping has changed, I guess...)

IMAGE: http://i868.photobucket.com/albums/ab246/shinksma/Wildlife%20and%20Nature/IMG_3098_1024.jpg

I'm quite happy at the extra detail I can extract out of the image, and the more natural colors I can get thanks to the various saturation tools, including individual color channels. And a very nice noise reduction toolkit.

So now I have this huge urge to go through all my posts here at POTN where I posted a photo, and see if I can improve it in any way.

Yeah all Ive ever used is DPP. One of these days I might get a real program for editing.
But then I would be in the same boat as you and would want to go through all my posts and that would be a chore! Best of luck with yours.

Well, as the moon was headed toward "fullness" last week I began a "moon project"!

I set up the 100-400 with a 1.4x TC on my trusty ol' 30D. Since that setup prevents AF. it was manual focus all the way, which can be "fun" with a setup like that, a tripod so no IS, just used the self-timer since I didn't have my cable release handy.

At the 560mm "reach", I still needed to crop closely. This was from "day 1" when there was more shadow detail:

And then, a few nights later, the full moon ("Blue Moon"):

Heh! I see a bit of "fringing" on that full moon shot, Oh Well, I'll deal with it when I get the time!:)

EDIT: I did some quick Lightroom "defringing", it may not be perfect, but at least it was quick!

Got to borrow this lens a while back for a few days. Had some good times with it, but the smaller aperture at the long end killed it for me on cloudy days.
