Seeing as I'm between rigs atm, (8 weeks wait), I'm attempting some new post-processing techniques to fill my time, the idea being that photos are not instantly recognisable as such. The process doesn't work on all pics but if you're interested, I'm prepared to give yours a go.

If you have any well exposed photos of fish captures, rigs, or indeed, any decent resolution pics with high contrast (fluffy clouds work nice,) feel free to pm me and I'll tell you how to get them to me so I can work on 'em. A copy of your finished pic will be forwarded back to you after I've worked on it. Thanks

A few samples of how they finish.

I might take you up on the offer provided you pass on some tips!!!. Unfortunately I am just about to head off the straddie for 5 days. However when I get back I will PM you. I got a couple of high contrast pictures from fraser that are over exposed in some areas only (rain forest) and I have been looking for advice on how to deal with this issue!

OK mate, this process works on bringing out detail in the over/under exposed places. Of course, if there's no detail recorded at all, it won't work...........if you can't see detail, it doesn't mean that it isn't there to be recovered so really, all high contrast pics are worth a shot..........just that the results aren't guaranteed.

Are you playing around with Photoshop - using curves to get your results
