Is there a limit to how far we go with post-processing?
We (photographers) normally like to show our finished/perfected images but I thought I would post something different.
These images are an ongoing exercise in learning/familiarization about how post-processing with Lightroom 6 editing program can turn a definite pig's ear into something resembling an artificial-silk/nylon purse.
The first image is straight out of the camera (SOOC).
This second is after just a crop and an increase in the exposure level.
The following two have received the same full makeover with the exception of the treatment of the sky.
I enjoyed playing with the program and have learnt some new techniques.

Normal service will be resumed from now on.

I realize that it's only been 1 month since I posted an image of one of
our Grey Squirrels at the water bowl: I'm pleased with this shot on the 13th July.

Chaffinch.
A Brown Hare in the evening sun.
I haven't published an image of a Robin for five months – and now it is our National Bird – so I thought it is time.

My Photographs for week ending 28 June 2015
"Callow"
Red-legged Partridge.
Although these are not premium quality images I'm posting them as I'm not aware, well I've certainly not seen it before, of being offered a POGOE opportunity with the Little Egret in flight; and probably wont be again.
The main picture, taken on the 23 June 2015 @ 20:15 hrs, is not too far off focus, as can been seen by the enlarged images of each bird, but it was a case of right location, right time, right camera but wrong lens.

Meadow Pipit with supper.
Yellow Wagtail with supper.
We were hopeful that we might have a Hedgehog visitor to, or possibly new resident in, our garden. These were taken on the 26 June 2015 at 21:05 hrs.
