Complaints

Because I'm buried in things to get done today, I'm going forego the storytime I had planned for today and tell you all about the things that annoy me the most in these two shots. Ready? Okay!

I cut off the tail. I got tired of manually focusing the shots of fleeting wildlife that day, so this is an auto focus, and it is not focused properly. How did I manage to do all of that? Oh I know! I wasn't really paying attention. Although I did a teeny tiny bit of post processing - a little sharpening to fake a focus, a bit of a bump on the vibrance on the colors (which made the lighting go all horrible), and some possible shadow work. None of it seemed to do much to help the overall quality of the shot.



Now, this one is better, however, the foot. I cut off the foot. And again with the auto focus and missing the right point of focus. Well done me! I did a teeny bit of post process, had to fix the exposure, was too bright SOOC.



Let it be known, the way to solve most of these problems? Shoot at the right exposure, include the whole of the subject in the frame, and learn how to post process properly.
