How About This Shot Guys? permalink

While washing the boat and my tackle the other day,,I noticed this in the sunlight. I had to shoot it. Tell me what you think.........

I think I like this tighter crop better, but its not as sharp...

Makes me want to get out fishing, and I'd agree I like the tighter crop much better

Really like the image. Cropped larger image and maintained sharpness. Also made a few other changes -- hope you don't mind.

,,,,I don't mind,,but it looks worse than mine..........I printed the crop 18" wide yesterday and it looks sharp as a tack.

I went back and PhotoShoped the original. Looks a lot better now.

I'm guessing the original image you have is a higher resolution than the image posted. The posted image is only 72 dpi, so it will look crappy when printed that large. The other thing I did was to remove the handle from the center of the image and create the front of the spool -- along with a few other touch-ups. I just felt your eyes were drawn to the handle in the cropped image -- detracting from the image.

Still a nice image. Thanks for posting.:fishing2:

Yeah Dan,,You did a good job on that handle.
The original is 300DPI .
I put it at 72DPI before I post it so it will load faster.
There is no need for it to be any higher for a monitor.

I like it.
