shot this little LB on a door screen - unfortunately the macro picked up all the pollen and dust and dirt on the screen so I upped the constrast, darken the blacks and did tons of cloning to clean it up - lesson - clean screen more often:-)

a slpendid capture, Wendy! Now what would you rather do? Take photos, or clean insect screen? #2851968Wendy Stevenson June 04, 2006
Thanks John - and in this case I'm wishing I would have cleaned the screen first so I wouldn't have had to clean it twice - once in PSCS and one with cleaners:-(( #2852194Steve Mescha June 06, 2006
Really sharp graphic, Wendy!! It's so funny how we train our eyes overlook things that really show up in photos. It's amazing the detail I've captured in cobwebs and dust balls :-) #2861400Wendy Stevenson June 06, 2006
