Job well done and I can now see lot of details on the flower petals. can you share with us the PS work-flow

What I did was to move the sliders for various settings like brightness, contrast, shadow and exposure (Adobe raw processing in CS2) until I could see details on the flowers emerging. This was followed by a bit of USM before doing the save-for-web part.

[Silverstreak]

Thanks Federick.
Yes, it is always a problem when there are white patches in the scene.

Sunny, aren't you a bit surprised about the presence of silverstreak in that area?
We were not able to locate any ficus plant in the area. Just wonder whether there are alternative food plants for the silverstreak.

Horace ,

There are Ficus microcarpa(Golden) in the area , except that it is not the same trim hedges as seen in TBHP or KRP.

The Ficus microcarpa if let to grow without trimming can go to great height. I have seen some tall plants further in at T20 .

The tallest Ficus microcarpa I have seen so far is right at my backyard , it is close to 20 metres high and covering a wide area, the Silverstreaks are all on top.

Thanks Sunny for the info on the wild ficus plant. I was not looking for such tall plants at that time.

Must learn to recognise it and locate it in that area to make hunting for silverstreak an easier job.
