Thanks to those Scott Kelby Photoshop Killer Tips and chapter 2 of the Adobe Photoshop CS5 book (that was a mouth full) I am learning Camera RAW editing. I have to say though, that it is quite similar to Adobe Lightroom 3 at which I am quite proficient. Lets just say every photo I take (over 1000/month) passes through my Lightroom 3.
So the results of this mornings review is a photo from our visit to Victoria in April. The BC Legislative Buildings. And may I take a moment to remind people (even a tour guide I spoke with there) that they are NOT the Parliament buildings. Parliament is in Ottawa (federal)- where Members of Parliament gather. The Legislature (provincial) is where members of the Legislative Assemble meet.
Okay that's all - just a tidbit from my days as the tour guide of the Manitoba Legislative Buildings. Bet you didn't know that about me. :)
The before photo...
Bright morning sun with harsh shadows. 
The post Camera RAW edits photo.
The Moral of the story is don't delete those poorly exposed photos.
OR - shoot in RAW, set the right DOF and be in focus. Everything else is negotiable in Photoshop!
Love the new font and thankful for the good advice. Can't wait to get my copy of Lightroom 3!!
ReplyDeleteYou can download a trial version of Lightroom 3 and get working on it now. When your copy arrives, just input the registration code and your downloaded trial version becomes the real McCoy.
ReplyDeleteI love kelbys new book. I have been using Camera RAW from the get go though, but i have heard nothing but praise about L3 as well. I like the slight vingette on the edited copy!
