Think you went a bit mental with the NR there. Little bit of CA too

That branch really annoys me but I did try to move it and it just flung back into shape :L

Branch looks fine to me, just it's too noise reduced!

Amateur moment, how'd you know when too much is too much? Because it looks artificial or detail loss?

Hyburnate · 20 Dec 2013 at 11:25

@rodo I like the clarity but I think you should mask it and make it only on the dog, I think it looks a little too much on the grass. Just my 2p

I do like the vignetting though.

Mostly the detail loss and artificial like the face of a woman on the cover of Cosmo

Hmm okay

I'll re-process it. I feel happy I had to google what you meant by Cosmo

Thanks. How would you recommend doing that? Crop or use a tool to mask it?

Couldn't comment for Aperture but in Photoshop you hold Ctrl + Click on Layer Mask on a new layer with the clarity changed and use a white brush and paint on the areas you want the clarity to be visible. This is a real poor explanation and YouTube would probably help you more than I.

e; Ok, reprocessed now without noise reduction

I only look for scientific purposes of course.

Ok, doesn't quite belong here. But damn it looked amazing this morning. Too bad I wasn't ready as else I'd have headed outside and used the tripod but Venus disappeared not 10minutes later.

I noticed exactly the same thing this morning, about 8am the moon in the blue sky was so clear it was unreal. I came upstairs to get my camera, forgot what I was doing and decided to play Anno2070 for 5 hours
