Noel, it's a really nicely timed shot with a decent low angle. Even lower would be better, but it's not alway possible with the environment and obstructions. With regards to the processing side it's a little flat. Just using Lightroom, setting the back and white points will boost things...

Late to the party with this one Dale, but this is superb. I love the depth throughout the frame. 10/10 from me Mike

Glad to see you've got your head around this one Stu, the above shop is certainly a lot sharper than the earlier frame Mike

What is being suggested is that particular lens suffers IQ wise and possibly in relation to AF speed when used with a 1.4x converter. However, that said, please see the response from Demilion above Mike

Glad it’s helpful Stu, whatever the op is next week, good luck

Glad its helping Stu - there really is no right and wrong with shots like this, so don't worry about putting your own spin on things. I'll send you my TIFF via wetransfer so you can load it up in photoshop and see my thought process On the screenshot below you'll see one of the curves layers is...

No worries Stu, but if I get to see the RAW then I have a starting point to give you some ideas Mike

Stu, Might have a bit of time later, fire me the RAW vi wetransfer if you would t mind. Pm me if you need my email address afain Mike

| like the idea, the composition an the pose on the first Joe but not too keen one the blur in PP. Second looks more natural, and I really like the low perspective Mike

Nicely done John, not exactly a regular sighting MIke

A wall hanger. Nothing more to add Mike

Lovely Phil, love the look at the eye on the first - great light Mike

Horrible news, very sad to hear this, always came across as a 10/10 bloke Mike
