I want to be a better photographer. I'm always striving for this. I read photographer's blogs, I practice practice practice. And just today I asked E to teach me some of the quick tricks in Photoshop, because all pro photographers know how to make edits in Photoshop.
I'm brand new to this. But I hope I'll get good. Here is my first enhanced photo. First one is strait from the camera. This is how I post 99% of my photos on this blog. No edits other than the occasional black and white image. Second one is the edited version. Too much saturation? Thoughts?

I've always thought you take fantastic pics! I really do like the second one of my perfect grandson!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite teacher for this sort of thing is "a few scanning tips" at http://www.scantips.com
ReplyDeleteI like your enhanced photo.
the enhancements look fantastic, now try the burn tool, it will darken the bright white streak above his head. It is a hand in the shape of an OK symbol, called burn tool, under the dodge tool (dodge makes it lighter) that looks like a dark lolipop. Cool !
ReplyDeleteI think it looks great!
ReplyDeleteLooks good! But I don't know anything about Photoshop either, I always just upload pics without editing. Drives Colette crazy!
ReplyDeleteGreat job on the enhancement. Since I'm not a photographer, I don't know what I would do without photoshop to touch up lighting and color problems.
ReplyDeleteI found your blog from Kelle's. I had to click when I saw you were a fellow Salt Laker. The editing looks great. What tools did you use? I have photoshop but don't know how to do much with it to change the look of my pics.
