Hey guys-
Firstly, thanks to everyone who helped me find Imperial Hill- that was quite the experience & not something we have in PHX.
My 200mm L lens managed to get the heavies full-frame, but I'm having trouble sharpening. I managed to fix the contrast & get rid of the haze(second photo, my editing attempt), but it got rejected for being soft (which it is, I agree). The first pic is how it came out of the camera. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated & of course I'd mention your name in the photo caption.
Also, would someone want to re-explain the USM in PSP to me? I know what each field is for, but I don't think I'm getting the concept (like "if you do this, then this is what happens to the picture," or "if you increase the number in this box without increasing the others, this happens" sorta thing).
And finally, any tips to prevent softness in the future? Do any of you increase the sharpness setting of your cameras to get a more defined photo or does it really work?
Many thanks,
Justin

PS- if the full file size would work better for you, I'll gladly email it to you. Right now they're sized at 1024 wide.
