But, you could be right, that the photo is slighty underexposed. The "dogs" are in fact "ducks" ;-) I cared more about the light and the church on the left and the chimney on the right, the "golf player ducks" where just a welcome addition. The fun shot: It was a quick snapshot of that poor animal in front of a shopping centre and I saw, that the concrete in the background is ugly too. I really did not care a lot for this photo, it had it's use here already and I don't think I will work on it anymore. But your suggestion is noticed and I would try it if the photo where a keeper ;-) greetings Markus >>> As for this picture, Markus: >>> http://www.photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=3367055 >> >>Very funny, and here the grain's texture adds nicely to the sense of >>depth afforded by the chosen depth of field.
