Hello Folks,
The other day I was walking my dog on my property. We came upon a immature retail hawk that was on the ground. It just watched us it did not feel threatened. Thank goodness thoses tallons are sharp and the beak is too!! The only camera I had was in my cellphone. It took an ok general picture but I tried to use photoshop 10. I tried to crop it, that was ok. Then I tried to zoom in and the result was a totally blown picture with over piculated image. I will not share the garbage that I came up with because it was that bad. Any suggestions as to what I could do to get a nice image?

Thanks
Blake

Do you want to use the same image, and get better results?

Of course, you could rush right down to your local Apple store this morning and shell out big bucks for the newest iPhone 5 device that goes on sale this morning. Maybe it will have a better camera.

Then you'll need to find another bird to be your model.

There are software programs that will increase the size of your picture... with minimal pixelation..

thanks Mr. Wilson,
I just went from a droid back to a flip phone. One that meets mil specs. I am a firefighter and droids do not like cold or wet situations. So I will not be looking for a new I phone. They are but for deck jockeys

Rex,

No sir, it's a Caseo g2. It meets Mil specs. Since I'm a fire fighter I need a phone that can withstand water and temperture ranges.

I can just picture the scene. You and several other guys are making your way through a burning house, looking for survivors. Suddenly, your phone rings. "Hold on guys. It's the wife. I've got to take this. Yes, dear, I can stop at the store on the way home. Let me find a piece of paper - whoops, it burned right up."

I almost always have my 8mp point and shoot Canon with me. Cell phone take lousy pictures. The SD1100i Canon takes ok images but they are full of data that won't get pixelized and you can work with them in post.
