moloko Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 I am really interested in seeing the before and after photos people take. See how the picture was taken and the magic to bring it to life. I will start out. Before: After: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crazzy88ss Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 man somebody forgot to set the WB before taking the shot :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moloko Posted February 14, 2008 Author Share Posted February 14, 2008 I work in RAW so I was not concerned much with color balance. Is to fix in PP. I was hoping others would share the before and afters too. I curious as to how much poeple actually tweak the photos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubbabyte Posted February 14, 2008 Share Posted February 14, 2008 everyone tweaks photos.. as much as i like a thread like this, it's really pointless because i would say 98% of the shots in the monthly picture thread are tweaked. Very rarely will you get a perfect out of camera shot without any pp.. there are always ways to improve the picture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McKrout Posted February 14, 2008 Share Posted February 14, 2008 I like the idea of the thread, I'll post something when I get home from the office tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I post a lot of untouched pictures up here. Sometimes it's cuz I'm lazy/tired, or sometimes it's cuz I don't have the photoshop skills to adjust it.

Draconian Guppy Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 I post a lot of untouched pictures up here. Sometimes it's cuz I'm lazy/tired, or sometimes it's cuz I don't have the photoshop skills to adjust it. +1 A small example of slight levels in photoshop. IMO more of a light post process instead of the "OMG look at my skillz" :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prince Charming Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 I post a lot of untouched pictures up here. Sometimes it's cuz I'm lazy/tired, or sometimes it's cuz I don't have the photoshop skills to adjust it. Yeah, everything I posted is untweaked as well, mainly due to being too lazy to do it.

Sir Topham Hatt Posted February 16, 2008 Share Posted February 16, 2008 ^ Not sure on that one. The colours after editing look really strong. The first one looks more natural. Perhaps a little less contrast would have done it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
