Technical Details / Making of this Image[edit]

en: Notes on processing this image

  • Starting off from the raw image the colours of the caterpillar were slightly enhanced and those of the underlying leaves slightly reduced.
  • My intention was to improve the visual separation of the main object of interest from the background of leaves both on screen and when printed.
  • If not deemed appropriate for Wiki image candidates please address me at User talk:Franz van Duns. RESULT: No reaction hitherto in this matter.

de: Anmerkung zur Verarbeitung dieses Bildes:

  • Ausgehend von der RAW-Datei wurden die Farben der Raupe sacht angehoben und die des Hintergrunds etwas reduziert.
  • Meine Absicht war es, den wichtigsten Bildgegenstand visuell besser vom Blätterhintergrund abzuheben, sowohl auf dem Bildschirm als auch beim Druck.
  • Falls als unangemessen für die Belange von Wiki erachtet, bitte vermerken unter User talk:Franz van Duns. ERGEBNIS: Bisher keine Intervention bezüglich dieses Sachverhalts.
