Default digi zoom

Digital zoom does not really help the shot . Just walk up a bit closer and the image will be a lot sharper. The top of the steeple is missing while there is a lot of foreground grass that could have been eliminated. Try not to use digital zoom and your shots will be much more appealing

hi vauxspeed. i found this shot quite intresting. like marc_714 said about your picture , i added to the top of the picture and cropped the bottom and right side a little,then corrected the horizon. did some more tweeks and give it a warmer feel and then added an orton effect. hope you dont mind.

regards carl.

hi vauxspeed. adding to the top of your picture was really quite easy. i just used the crop tool. i just stretched it above the picture ,and then just cloned in from the trees and sky. hope that helps you.

regards carl.
