Here is what I think is happening with the moose...another source of frustration lately. The hair on the typical adult moose is VERY coarse and gets progressively finer as you head towards the muzzle. So when you shoot from a distance you get hair detail that gradually diminishes towards the muzzle, and it looks out of focus because the hair detail disappears. Take a look at that 3rd black and white shot. That was taken at 1/400 sec with the head perpendicular to the camera, yet the muzzle looks softer to me. Once you have this phenomena in mind, then it stands out on all the moose shots.
I may need to reprocess and selectively sharpen the muzzle area more....Show more →
