thanks !!
on the second one its way up there like 70 - 80 feet. I was zooming in !
I shoot raw, so in order to match closely to what I see on my LCD when I LIKE a shot, I have a preset I use that usually brings it almost to 95% based on what presets I am using in my camera.
I would say that I do about the same as anyone who would develop film has to do to get the shot to look like they see it in their head when there shooting !! sometimes its a bit, sometimes not much at all..
