Do you like these?

Took some photos of a couple of hawks in a washed out sky then pulled whatever color was present out. So what do you think? Do you like this sort of look or not?

no

Have to agree. The photos would look better unmanipulated.

 

[HamburgerBoy]

No. It looks like you got the pictures and tried sticking them into Wolfenstein 3D.

Photos 2-3 are pretty good, the others just dont work. Keep workin on it

Photo 2 is my fav though

Okay, I updated with the originals. I was just trying to get something a little interesting out of not much of anything as you can see.

You need a much longer lens man

Gotta fill that frame with the bird.

Yeah, I know. I was using the longest lens I have, the Canon 75-300. I've been thinking of getting a TC and giving that a try. I've also been looking at the Sigma 50-500, you wouldn't happen to know anything about that lens would you, Odin?

The bigma is a great lens for the price. Check on Fred Miranda for used ones.

If you get a TC, get the Canon ones. Cheap ebay ones will make your images suck.

I think the originals are awesome, I don't know if I care for the edits.

I'll take a look at FredMiranda. I wondered about those generic teleconverters and whether they were okay or not. Thanks Odin.
