Oh! do you really think so Ken, and I thought they were a total write off, I never really noticed the abstract quality of the dreaded purple glow, perhaps I should have them canvas mounted

Yes it was a pleasure to meet Paul and Tom for the first time and put faces to names, and catching up with old friends is always good too.

As Paul has said the weather was dire and not really a day for photography, although the Waxwings he showed us on his LCD looked far better than any I got

So heres my offering from the day, my first (ever) Waxwing shot, cropped to about 1/7th of the original frame and a pair of Tufted Ducks.
I hope others fared a little better as mine will probably end up in the recycle bin

While I am much impressed with the Photoshop techniques of my fellow forum members,I am more in line with" SmutjeUK",I shot this young lady because I thought her very pretty and attractive,her complexion didn't enter my mind. I much prefer to photograph people as I see them,not as I can make them look afterwards,the only photo editing I use is Picasa,for lightening,contrast and colour conversion.I may seem like an old fuddy duddy!...but I much prefer the lady in her natural state,thank you all for you remidial efforts,which I admire...but I'm afraid it's "Natural for me!

Strong portait. She's also a little short of eyelashes on her left (our right) eye. I'd stick in a couple more to balance it up a bit.
