Just for you then

I've uploaded Some More pictures for you from Prague. Please bear in mind that these are just using the jpg's from the camera, and have had no post-production performed on them.

It seems like the latest edition of DCM is aimed right at me (it must be a sign!) - Guides on landscape photography, sub £100 equipment, and a RAW guide! I'll be devouring the details in there I think, in an effort to bring my technique up.
Your most welcome. Just take your time and don't try to rush things as it can be a very steep learning curve sometimes and if you don't get the first time don't get frustrated or panic. Also don't worry about what other people are doing and when you post some photos on the forum try not to take any critacism personally as it's meant in the right way. Take it all on board and try to learn from it.......


Most of all HAVE FUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've been playing around with The Death Stare in ACR. What do you guys think is better?

Old

New

I'd appreciate any comments on the processing too. It's my first processed RAW, and I was largely playing around with the sliders, so I'm still not entirely confident on it, but would like to here anything you think I could have/should have done differently.

Thanks

Thanks so much. They brought back memories of this stunningly beautiful city.

Tomorrow, when I've got a bit more time, I'll post a few tips. But in general they're lovely pix.

Cheers,
