I hate to say it, but I think this will be a landslide. Good stuff all around though.
I did not vote for me, not sure if that makes me honest, a loser, or both.
On a serious note I noticed that of all the pictures my colors "pop" the least. Do I need to start using a UV filter or finally learn how to post process my images or something completely different?

Notice that only your photo of the above 5 was uploaded through TGR, so maybe your picture is being compressed, and thus drained of its "pop".
How does it look on your screen, before you upload it?
The photo hosting service can effect the quality of the image? Holy crap I still have a lot to learn.Quote:

I am going to take a look at the original image when I get home and see if I can notice a difference.
Thanks for the help.
Zippy slays. SW posted an airborne of Zippy in the dog stoke thread awhile back I still have as a rotating screen saver. [/true confenssions]
I'm catching up bitches! (Nice shot shepard!)
If it makes you feel any better, I used a P&S for my picture- no filter or anything, and not a whole lot of post processing either.Quote:

I took my first swipe at post processing (other than following a specific set of instructions used to create a stencil ala my avatar) yesterday and quickly found that two clicks of the mouse could have drastically improved my picture (cooling filter). It was cool to know that the option is there but also made me realize how easy it would be to continue taking crappy pictures and just assuming that I can fix them afterwards. I don't think I am going to start down that road for a while yet.Quote:
