Here is a funky scan of a old Kodachrome. It could use more help than my meager photoshop skills. But he is jumping.

Great action shot!

Keep working on PS, it's worth the effort. Play with the color balance to get cleaner colors. Curves is another tool to try, but I've struggled with that more than the color balance method.

You caught the action nicely. Cropping the right side about half way between the tail and the weed in the LRC and cropping about the top about halfway down to the coyote would improve the composition. As it is it appears that he is about to hop out of the picture.

Great action shot. I agree that more work in PS and the cropping would make it even better.

Lose the cyan cast and you have a real winner!

Never let it be said I can't take a hint :lol: .
I think this takes most of the cyan out. Those kodachrome's are a pain.
I could have taken more off the right side but I don't have a larger size handy right now.
Let me know if this looks better on other monitors please.
Thanks
Jess

Really nice capture, Jess. The crop is definitely better composed, but in both shots you did a great job catching the leap.
