But I do, AND I personally like the background darker,( your post) If anything... I would say that I would like the horse's face just a tiny bit brighter....

Jan 06, 2010 18:40 | #9 To be honest when I played with the blend modes in PS I felt it lost something when when brighter so I made it darker. The shot was taken at the correct exposure, its the blend modes (overlays and soft lights) that make it darker.

I understand the purpose but I personally would like it better if it was a wee less dark; but I imagine 50 persons will give you 50 different advices... Gerard
