About the Image(s)
I was eating dinner at my sister's cottage yesterday and looked out the window to see this raccoon climbing up a small tree. So I grabbed my phone (no camera) and got about 30 feet away and took several pics.
I messed around in post more than I normally might since the original image was relatively low resolution because the photo app was completely digitally "zoomed" out (8X). So I added some pixels, sharpened the face and body, darkened the strong backlighting, and made some other adjustments. I was a marginal image to begin with and I think it may be passable for normal viewing now.

I think this is great! I thought you might have softened the image and I really liked the result on the fur. Cell phone cameras are amazing!   Posted: 11/05/2025 17:19:39
Thanks Cindy. The nice thing about the phone camera is that you nearly always have it with you.   Posted: 11/05/2025 19:48:19
