It actually works like I said, I've never looked it up but just played with layers and see what it does.
here is a video about it link

I tried adding a new layer to one of my photos set to soft light and opacity of 30%. Although I was only judging from the screen I couldn't see any difference when I turned the layer off and on again.
Thanks, Kris.
No problem Kris but it's all my opinion so I don't know if I'm right or not.I tried adding a new layer to one of my photos set to soft light and opacity of 30%. Although I was only judging from the screen I couldn't see any difference when I turned the layer off and on again.

It adds contrast mostly but it also makes the colour a bit intenser I believe, it just brings more live to the photo it seems.
Just set the layer at 100% you can clearly see what it does but I'm the man of the subtle things so I bring it just down to the point you hardly see it but the photo looks just bit more livly too me.
A soft light layer really do wonders with HDR because they look so flat most of the time.
If you invert the soft light layer it gives the reverse effect btw.

Amin, I simply wanted to see the photo to look how it is on the far end of his reach because I'm looking for something that can do 300mm.
I myself use a cable release, I also have a remote but the cable is more responsive and it always works so I tend to use that more often when i can. The remote works also great but it's just so small the pentax F remote.

Thank you all for your comments, really something to think about.
Gwyn, I've the same problem but since I've always the QR plate on my camera I was thinking of just maiking a buckle. Just one that is between the plate and the camera and use that to attache a strap to it.

Thank you all for you great comments, I'm really thrilled!
I was tempted too to clone it out but I didn't found it too distracting and it gives you a foreground, like looking through the bushes or something like that.
We all have differend taste and I'm glad for that.
And the bird is against the bright side but it works I think

thank you very much but there was some croping though only the butterfly and the flower arent cropped, the wolf was heavily cropped and I need to check on the bird I aint sure about it...I like the way you have got in close to eliminate anything but the subject, especially of the bird.

The first one is good but personally I would drop the exposure a bit so as to darken the background a bit but more importantly the butterfly itself (it may just be my laptop screen but it seems very bright to me).
Also, pity you didnt get the whole butterfly in there.
The wolf, I would clone out the branches that are out of focus on top of his body. Nice pic though.
I love the bird but again it seems a bit bright to me .. which brings be to the conclusion it could well be my laptop screen.
I've some other shots with the butterfly taken with a flash and in such manner that the background wasn't lit so it's black. I will upload some of those too, I just didn't want to stuff it full with a lot of the same stuff.The first one is good but personally I would drop the exposure a bit so as to darken the background a bit but more importantly the butterfly itself (it may just be my laptop screen but it seems very bright to me).
