    Over the top action Susan. Do a little PS on a some of those eyes and you have winners for sure.
    Don't forget about the Gallery. Are your photos there??

    Number two and three have some top-notch action. The eyes could use some work in number one as Old Timer mentioned but overall, nice snaps.

    How do ya'll work on those gouly eyes? Whenever I try to work on them, they just look like blobs...I've tried levels (on the eye selection), replace color, etc...I can't get something that looks "normal" so I just leave them gouly and figure at least people realize its a flash, and not some mutated tumor in the eye socket..... What secret am I missing?
    Cheers,

    The only real way to eliminate red eye and zombie eye is to get the flash off-camera. Red eye is pretty easily fixed but the zombie effect is pretty much a lost cause without making the eyes look weird.

    Daniel...thanks for the heads up on the ghoul eye...I've been trying to find a work around, but so far...no luck...Perhaps just putting another eye in... :-)
    Actually, if I convert to black and white, presto!! It doesn't look quite so bad!! "-)

    I just noticed the redeyes in the bulls pictures that I missed (on the fence climbers)...I just assumed you meant the ghoully eyes, hence my thread.......did y'all mean fix those red=eyes on the spectators? Sometimes I'm daft!!
    cheers,
