Ahh, thanks Victor. They don't bug me so much in this image b/c I think they kind of add to the feel of the disturbance from the blast. I'll have to toy around with your method for future reference. Thanks! ~ Lonnit
I was going to comment before you hinted at the change that I like the pipes better. Now that you've changed them, I'll say this instead: I like the pipes better . Oh, and see the way you have color posterization artifacts here? That's the sort of thing I was avoiding with my first Spring shot by doing color adjustments in 16 bit and then adding a bit of noise. If you want, you can also select the affected area and blur just the hue channel. or blur the two color channels in lab mode. -- Victor
