And now the owning up bit. Annie took this photo after I mockingly told her there was no change of getting a decent wildlife shot with the Kodak V705 that I always use. I have to say she did well, even though the picture you see here has spent a good while being re-arranged, sharpened and enhanced using half the dirty tricks in the Photoshop arsenal of deception. The eagle eyed may spot that there is no reflection from the canal wall!
Another happy fisherman down on Ashton Canal.

definitely a heron - i've seen one or two on the canal. I'm told they nest somewhere on the land behind Naysmith Avenue in Denton.
ReplyDeleteThen I don't need to ask what that tower is!
ReplyDeleteI'm a big fan of Photoshop
I used it extensively here.

I don't know what the tower is either. I didn't add it.
ReplyDeleteCan't tell that your pic is Photoshopped.
It's the tower at the new fire station at Guide Bridge:

Amazing Martin. How could you have recognised the tower from an upside down wobbly reflection!
ReplyDeleteBecause I know that stretch of canal very well!
