The ruffled feathers don't bother me personally. I hadn't thought that they indicate human handling. I like what they add, being some of the delicacy of the downier under feathers. Since the purpose of your crop is to remove the rumpled parts, I guess you aren't asking about composition??

I'd appreciate the opinions of this learned group about the various crops: Vertical: http://wildlightphoto.com/temp/merl03a.html Horizontal: http://wildlightphoto.com/temp/merl03b.html and the original crop, with tweaked colors: http://wildlightphoto.com/temp/merl03c.html BTW, these crops are about 25% of the original file. Gotta love the detail the APO-Telyt puts on a sensor. All opinions welcome. Doug Herr Sacramento http://www.wildlightphoto.com _______________________________________________ Leica Users Group.
