A little advice from me is to crop the bottom off to remove (or reduce) what looks like the baseboard edge. I always crop my photos as well as other tweaks I'm experimenting with. Here's my last pic in its raw state. Edited July 1, 2022 by 97406 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the problems with having a layout on a window cill! Ah I can see it now. However it's out of focus which doesn't happen with the equivalent full size picture. In an ideal world it's best to use a camera where you can control the aperture. I use the smallest aperture I can on my compact camera and a tripod, though you can go further with a proper digital SLR jobbie. The lighting on your pic is spot on, though and cropping the front will increase the realism to these eyes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If an image can be interpreted as a good likeness of realism then fine; if not please keep the images to your own topics! There's been some great stuff of late and some, honestly, which isn't so can we keep to the intent of the topic please?
