Masterful shot. You have learned your lesson well. I also like the shading around the borders of the picture.
I only wish he stayed still long enough to get the shot like this.. This took hours to fix. Of course it was my first time doing anything this detailed

Ya think? I've heard a little Rustoleum and Armorall could do magic. :lol:
Nice B&W tho.
I think "Gas Monkey Garage" could help ..
Let's see what hours of time can do. Lets compare this one to the original & see if I did the "Headless Bird" justice
Thanks all for the feedback,
the "Headless bird" issue,, LOVE IT, I took as many shots while moving to change positions, and have some, "I am out of here" shots when he was spooked.
No one noticed the people on the beach moved, now all the poop on the pier, so I guess they weren't too bad.. (or the image too small)
I will be spending a bit more time based on the suggestions. Ideally I would have loved the head to be surrounded by water, but I am to short for that :)
Maybe separating everything & pushing the shoreline back is the answer
When it comes to Photo Shop..
Sometimes I go to far, I see everything & think it needs to be "Perfect". I know if you only saw the "Fixed" photo it would be fine, but I posted both so you could (kindly) tell me where I went too far.
Thanks in advance.

Not sure if this is any better than the first one, I took the "Pen" off the road too, and cleaned the lower right corner.
I am guessing you no longer have this bike ....
I took a bunch of photos during last years "Super Moon"
These were take with the Canon PowerShot SX50 HS.
Handheld @ 50x zoom, just kidding I used a tripod & remote trigger. I am not that steady.

well done, a touch of flash would have cleaned up the shadows for a better look at the junk veh.
I don't actually carry a flash (on a leisurely walk) that can overcome the direct sun at my back, and a subject 100 yards away, on posted private land..
Besides, I think the shadows are awesome. I actually darkened the photo and pumped the contrast just a bit, to make it starker. But that's my taste
:lol:
On a walk with the son, came across this little gem.
Canon PowerShot SX50 HS (nice P&S)
Then a little Photo Shop for effect
Here is a shot I grabbed with a digital P&S a couple years ago. The wife & I were walking down a beach on Fla east coast (not sure which one anymore) & I saw the lighthouse.
This is a retired LH and was said to never shine. I beg to differ.
The res is not great, but I like the concept. This is not edited, but I may do a bit of work to darken the photo overall to make the light pop.
