  • Comment I think a little more contrast at the high end would help. Samsara (FA  FP) 14:43, 14 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
    • Not sure what you mean exactly. JJ Harrison (talk) 01:28, 15 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
      • On any but the best displays, the white areas show no differentiation. Unless this picture was taken under severe overexposure, some simple curves work should fix the problem. Samsara (FA  FP) 14:39, 15 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
        • Darker in highlight areas is what you are after? JJ Harrison (talk) 22:59, 15 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
          • Yes - I suspect you already did some highlight recovery, but maybe we can apportion some more contrast to those lighter areas? Thanks. Samsara (FA  FP) 16:10, 16 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
            • No point with so little time to go now, sorry. I think what you describe would technically be a reduction in contrast, by the way. I intend to see if I see any more Fulmars on the sea in the next half dozen boat trips. If I don't see any, then I think I'll renominate the other image (which I feel ought to have passed anyway).
