What more do you need on your desktop? I was guessing that it might have been yours. Looks like he street was dark, Besides the panhandler there was a lot going on, maybe the dark and misty part of life. w..

To clarify, that's 16x magnification on a 10 MP APS sensor, so it's a 1.5mm wide scene. I've begun noting the magnification as ppi, like compared to if you dropped the subject on a film scanner at 7,000 ppi; this is close to 70,000 ppi. Some of that can be empty magnification though and this is pushed enough to waste plenty of pixels so full size isn't super detailed.

Although it is no excuse, I bolor balanced this on my laptop instead of my regular monitor. I agree ;the color balance is a little too green and the rocks a lot darker on my regular monitor. Perhaps others can learn from my mistake. I had not noticed that the incoming tide gives the illusion of a tilt. I will have to play with that. -- Peter |
