I hope that newspaper gave you some sort of credit. Must have been an amazing feeling though.
LOL - I may yet be back there soon - but only if the weather starts improving. Yeah it is a great feeling but in some ways seeing how they had manipulated it taught me an invaluable lesson about post processing. Never be afraid of it Of course the objective is and always should be to get it right with the original shot - but even images which have perfect lighting may just have a little imperfection that can be post processed out - recently I went to Toowoomba and pictured a beautiful array of flowers - I couldn't touch the flowers because they were not mine - but I could see there was one malformed flower which would ruin the whole look of the thing - no worries though, I took the shot knowing I could clone another flower over it and no one would ever know.
