    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"

    Troy,

    I don't give a hoot about what the eagle ate. I'm talking people food. I haven't found a top notch Italian restaurant down here yet (excluding my own cooking of course) so I have to enjoy it vicariously through others. When you go to the Bronx Zoo I expect you to eat on Arthur Ave and I expect to see some pics of the food.

    It took a "rat" to make him turn to me. And he wouldnt stare for more than a split second at any given time.... I only had 10 minutes to get my shot ( had to get home ) but as I said Im happy with it but it lacks the definition I was looking for

    Troy just wondering if you think this is better. Not only am I still learning how to take better pics but also how to look at them..

    I think there is slight more feather definition as well. I haev been playing around with software from pixel genius. They have Photokit Color which is a plug in for PS. This one just boosted the midtone contrast.

    i think this is a better "keeper" but it still looks kinda lifeless to me.....
