6,7,8 & 9

These are from Busch Gardens, Tampa, Florida . Canon 400D and EF-S 55-250 IS.

With these 3 I did the usual, crop to tweak composition, up contrast and fill light to strengthen image, some clarity as well.

This is Jephsons Gardens, Leamington Spa, last week. Canon 60D and EF 70-300 IS USM.

For this image I found that the bounced green on her face was too much, and I found her hair was something that really made this image turn out so good. So I tried playing with the RAW calibration first, change the green levels and tweaking until the reds felt like a subtle split tone. I also removed some stray hairs with the patch tool in Photoshop. Its not often I even bother with PShop but I think it was worth the effort in this case, making a good photo, a great one.
