Landscape Lonely Oak On Steep Hill

Lonely Oak On Steep Hill · 07:54 PM

Wintertime--
Tree's leaves gone.
Grass's leaves are green.

I have a puzzlement. This image is blurry; the original RAW image is very sharp.
Perhaps post processing error? Or reduction in pixel count to enable display on this site?
I'll post it as is, and then work with it to see if something in my processing is causing loss of resolution.

Well, ignoring the blur (if there is any), I think this is a stylistic image with nice composition and lively grades of green (turning to yellow, too).

In my experience, reducing pixel count tends to result in an increase in perceived sharpness.

Yes, indeed, there is a lot of blur compared to the original.
And the greens are just about as close to reality as I was able to make them--darkened just a bit due to exposure adjustment, but intensively green! I think it was the color green that defined this moment for me and caused me to take the shot.
Thanks for your note!

Thanks for the observation.
I've noted a couple of my shots lately where the detail has dropped dramatically from PP to posting.
I'll look into the pixel count matter to see if I can isolate that as a contributor.
