Snowy owls would be nice. I'm not much of a photographer but I've never seen one before so I want to go spotting  |

Nice captures, but they're very contrasty, unsharp & overexposed. The crane on the very right attacked me last time!

Contrast- ya thats my lack of photoshop experience, how much is too much
Unsharp- these are actually the first 2 pics I tried to sharpen in PS? maybe I did it wrong lol
Overexsposed- yep, I do that a lot, wish I could see it on my camera better, I usually don't find out till I'm home =(
The grumpy crane- He's mean eh, I actually have a funny shapshot of him attacking a young couple that were trying to walk past, the look of fear on the womans face is priceless

too much contrast is if it starts to look unnatural unless u intended for that look

Actually I usually am trying to make it look more "natural" I find that too many of my photos look really dull versus what my eyes see when I'm taking them. I'm using a Canon S2is, I currently have 'vivid' turned on for all my manual shots. I don't really know what it does (ADD has made reading the manual really slow, I'm half way through and I've had it since last spring =)
I just found that I liked my photos better straight off the camera with it on.
If I posted the originals, could you show me how you would play with them?
Here's the quick snap of the crane, there was no setup, I didn't even have my camera out when it stabbed at her. I just think its funny that she looks so scared, and her guy is laughing. 
*oh and I didn't change anything in this one besides resize/border, does it look to contrasty as well?

Oh, now that I looked at the original again, boy did I ever use to much contrast. I should keep a version of that open to compare to next time, I didn't realize how far it had gone =) oopsies

All the ducks at Reifel are fatsos.
I kept the last shot a bit underexposed just to keep it moody, like the expression on the crane. Scary bastard.
