 Taken using no close up filters this time, C&C appreciated. The outcome looks terrible after the downsize to me...really pixelated. How does everybody else get around this? Also, the crop isn't huge or anything either. Help? I use GIMP and Capture NX. I've provided the uncropped version, saved with largest side 640px and to 160K, with the same terrible pixelation.

I agree with the other comments about the pixelation (lack of). I don't notice any obvious sharpening artifacts, either. Good colors, and your crop is good. Ideally face wouldn't be blocked, of course.

I'm not seeing the pixelation here either. I really get the sense of movement here, but would like to see a bit more of the head.

No pixel problems here either. Your snake is a cutie! I like your unusual angle.

Nope, not seeing any pixelation either. I don't know how fast he was moving, but if at possible avoid those branches being over its face. Body would be okay but not the head.

i don't see the over pixelation... perhaps your monitor?

It doesn't look pixelated to me at all. Good colours

I'm not seeing the pixelation either. I don't find it over sharpened at all. Looks fine to me.

This doesn't look pixelated as much as over sharpened.
