went for a walk along beaulieu river today, nice to test the new backpack out, and its great.

looking at these now i think i may have gona little OTT with some processing

All taken with the fish, its amazing how if you line it up right you get no fish effect at all, its superb as a wide angle but has the effect if you want it. very pleased with it, super sharp too.

It just looks utterly shit, Vignetting in PP just makes photos look utter cack in 99% of the pics people do them on. I feel you should be abused royally for doing it

Number two is awesome, weird effect.

Cool pics mate, agree with Ryan about the vignette though

don55 · 11th May 2009, 10:01

cheers dude, the tree one was a HUGE file, 4 times the size of any other of them, was weird.

jsut loved the colour, it really was that green and bright, thats the one image i didnt process that much, well at all really.

Cool pics dude like the 'infra' pic looks immense

don55 · 11th May 2009, 11:31

yer ive tried the infra a few times but never go the right effect, think this time i got it pretty close.

Jamie · 11th May 2009, 13:20

Looks very cool mate

, may try one myself soon lol

don55 · 11th May 2009, 13:33

all done is photoshop

Jamie · 11th May 2009, 13:50

Desaturate, duplicate layer, inverted layer then played with opacity and blending mode of inverted layer?

don55 · 11th May 2009, 14:01

nope, it needs to be RAW.

open raw in PS and it opens in a seperate window yer, well go to 4th tab on right HSL/Greyscale and convert to grey, then play with the sliders, turn the blue down to make the sky darlk etc etc.

Jamie · 11th May 2009, 14:17

So whats the difference with RAW and just a normal jpeg, alot of quality lost in jpgs or something like that?

RAW files contain alot more data which means when PPing you have more data to play with, so can adjust WB easyer etc....

ps I notice the shitty vignette image gone brad
