Anyone got any ideas how i can clean up a shot like this?

Addy
Photoshop

Duplicate layer so you have two layers of same image
On top layer do Fliter/Blur/Gaussain blur at 8px
Still on top layer Try layer mode as Screen
Or Try lowing the Opacity still on top layer But layer mode as Normal

once happy flatten image

we do. but he got sacked cos he had 'social' problems (could only talk to people via his hand lol) :D

if you feel you've not been able to get employment because of your dyslexia why don't you take their arse to the cleaners?

How's this
Nice colours and textures but a bit of a nothingy composition. Sure you could crop something good out of it.

Here is a pic I like, I like the cows angles.
So do I. But I'd take the rest out. Just the cows in black and white would look best I reckon. But what do I know...

How about something subtle and something bold?
 
There is nothing arty about this photograph.

It isn't an exotic subject, it isn't anything tricksy or clever.

It's just downright cute.

Taken from my house looking over to where we have a load of bird feeding stuff in the garden. The optical zoom has just been overtaken by the digital zoom on my Olympus C770-UZ. I'd have liked just a touch more space around the top of the subject. I've seen wildlife calendars with worse pics in :D

:D

If you want something more pretentious there's always this detail of some rigging taken at the tall ships event in Amsterdam:

That really is a stunning picture, love all the lines, clean sky and snow, composition. Find yourself some competitions to win with that one.

If you have photo software I'd suggest you increase the contrast, it is a bit washed out.

And I have a complaint, please reduce picture sizes before sticking them online! Your image is 1600 pixels across, waaaay too big. Many browsers will reduce it to fit, but quite a few won't. I'd suggest no more than 700 px across for the web.
 
I think it's an otherwise good shot, but I do reckon it's a shame about the feet at the bottom. Having said that, a tighter square crop - losing the top up to the girl and maybe a bit of the left - could still work.
 
You see, I like the guy's feet in the shot, I zoomed out a little to include them. :)

(was standing on some battlements, you're not supposed to stand on in southsea)
 
You've convinced me a little on that, as it becomes more obvious when you view it alone instead of partially in the browser. I suspect it depends more on how it's framed. I've certainly gone off the cropping idea so fair enough.

The photo is out of balance. The matterhorn is always dramatic, but that makes it like a news shot. The subject is worthy of comment, but not the composition of the photo as a photo.

What is the center of the photo? Everything is going all over the place.
I agree. Maybe keep everything to the right of the closest metal support.
