Alright, you pixel pickers, I don't like those halos either. they crept in when I downsized from a 110Mb tif to a 560Kb Jpeg and applied an unsharp mask. Don't know if I'll clone out the leaf? - thats how it was on the day. I'll sort the halos out and repost it and maybe print it out.
Had a go at fixing the halos and I cloned the leaf out. This photo looks substantially better in its original format - 110MB TIF. I can't get the edges of the posts as crisp as I'd like in the Jpeg version. Overall though I'm happy with it.
Thanks for all the positive feedback and the suggestions. Much appreciated.
Stunning!
Hi Mark,
Well stop pixel peeping then
I know what mean, but full size (in Lyte box) at normal viewing distance it is fine - the 700px version in the thread looks jaggy, but that's just the way these things are.
The sharpening looks ok to me now, even on the sand.
Good work,
