Nest in its context | | valy67
(5276) [2006-04-29 10:40:33] | These photos will complete the picture of the eggs I posted this morning. On the first photo you can see the bushes where I found the nest, everything's in blosom it's very beautiful.
On the second photo it is the nest and his direct environment. It was hidden deep inside the bush, and branches were so close to each other that it was difficult to go close enough to the nest. |

Cropping and colors | | valy67
(5276) [2006-04-25 04:22:17] [4] | I like your picture but, in my opinion, it could be still be improved. I added some contrasdt to the colors to make them look brighter, and I cropped the photo to bring the bird out of the photo's center.
I like yout version too, I just wanted to show you what could be done on this image.
I hope you like it.
Regard,
Valérie. |

Picasa | | valy67
(5276) [2006-04-24 04:21:16] [5] | I have used a program called Picasa to modify your image. First I cropped the frame, because in my opinion it ws a bit too large. Then I added some contrast to the colours, and finally I sharpened the image.
I hope you like the result.
Rgards,
Valérie. |

Sous un autre angle | | valy67
(5276) [2006-04-12 04:48:36] | Je voulais simplement montrer cette salamndre sous un autre angle, afin que l'on puisse mieux admirer les formidables couleurs de cet animal très rare dans mon pays.
I just wanted to show a photo of this beautiful but very rare animal from another POV, so you can admire its wonderful and bright colors. |

Contrast and framing | | valy67
(5276) [2006-04-03 08:00:45] [6] | Hi Lucian ! I have added some contrast to the colors, now they are more luminous, which make the photo look better (in my opinion). I also sharpened the picture and finally I added a black frame.
I hope you'll like it. |

Cropping | | valy67
(5276) [2006-03-31 03:57:18] [7] | In my opinion there is a bit too much space around the little bird, he looks very small on your photo, he doesn't come out well enough. I also think that your bird it too centered on your photo.I've just cropped the borders and added some contrast to the colors. I think the bird is better highlighted this way.
I hope you'll like it.
Regards,
Valerie. |

Retouches... | | valy67
(5276) [2006-03-31 03:43:54] [3] | Firt I added a white frame to the picture, and then I added a bit more contrast on the colors (just a little, because the colors are already very good on your photo.) Thirdly I sharpened the image, and finally I made the BG more blurry to highlight the flower.
I hope you'll like it.
Regards,
Valerie. |

Retouche | | valy67
(5276) [2006-03-29 03:55:44] [5] | I've cropped a large part of the photo, because I think the bird seems almost lost in all this space around him, on your photo, we don't see him good enough. I hope that you'll like it.
