- Can others edit my Photos
- Photos NOT OK to edit
So there was this blackbird sitting in the quince tree in front of my study window making a total racket. Must have been because our cat was sitting in that same window and this young father (?) was protecting its young? Whatever... I tried to get photos of it from inside the window (since opening it would have made him fly away!), fully extended 300mm lens, hand-held, grey weather - blooper. Too bad.
I tried to "rescue" it by means of creating this collage, but - see for yourselves. They are all bloopery beyond repair. I'm too bad a photographer, after all. (Others get bird portraits that are sooo sharp you can see the landscape around them reflected in their eyes, but me? Hmph )
This was the cropped version of one, the sharpest, of the scanned photos
and this the way I scanned it
while in the original frame (print) there are even more leaves and even less bird to be seen. Harrumph - real bloopers
