Taking a breather whilst hiking on Table Mountain this little guy came to take a closer look at me. Sun very high, about midday. Cropped, lightened shadow and enhansed colour a little.

Cropped a little off the left to come closer to the 'rule of thirds' and remove some of the left branch. Cloned out the rest of the branch and ran through neatimage, default settings, to remove the noise.

Hi Reinier

Ek het ook a workshop probeer. Ek het Neat image gebruik om die "noise" uit die lug uit te haal, maar ook die volgende in PS gedoen.

Ek het die Dodge tool gebruik om die onderkant van die lyf en die skadus om die oog 'n bietjie ligter te maak. Verder het ek 'n klein liggie in die oog gesit om 'n flash na te maak. Jy sal verbaas wees om te sien hoeveel lewe hierdie liggie (veral by voels) aan die onderwerp gee.

Hoop jy hou hiervan

Groetnis

Hi Reinier, I noticed Japie's comment on noise and tried my hand at it in Photoshop. Noise reduction 70%; sharpended the picture and slightly ligtened the shadow. I thought the framing of the subject by the branches and the grass adds to he "dramatic effect" of this miniature monster. Thanks Japie. It looks better to me...?
