Picture of the Day

[Lestat]

anochlores i hope you dont mind, i adjusted yours a bit, i like it but your shot is wayyy to dark and contrast is way too low, see how it has a sort of milky haze over it along with being too dark.
i dont do this often only when i spot a really nice picture that i would like to adjust my way...
hope you like it, if not, just say so and i will take it down.

if i went any brighter it started going downhill,, for me.

Not really a nice picture but i wanted to share it with you guys, took the picture last month on a Dutch airshow.

pretty paint job there.

@Lestat
thanks for the edit. I was wondering why it looked different, then I read that you edited it.
In all honesty, I usually don't touch my pictures once I take them. That hazy, milky thing was from the water on my lens. The platform was all of 30 ft from the base and mist was everywhere. The underexposure was partly intentional, partly because I played with my LCD's brightness and the entire trip was shot half a stop or two under.

Anyway, thanks for the edit, but the green is a bit too vivid ;P I liek the dreamy quality it has now. That was what I was going for but it didn't come out too well while I was running around trying not to get wet. I wasn't sure if my K100D was weathersealed and the entire camera was dripping O.o

yeah the saturation was intentional.
i adjusted brightness, contrast. added some bloom so the falls look a little more dreamy and bright. deepened it a little and upped the saturation a few points, not much though. i think i applied a velvia tone to it too, i dont recall though.

it should be alot brighter but i aint that good with exposure/contrast/gamma increases.

this turned out better than i thought.
my 85mm 1.8 is backfocusing bad very bad and i didnt think this came out, even using liveview.

use a ND4 filter to help darken the surrounding and back area(s) then added more during post.

Great images Weevil and Olly_K

amazing image Tarowah, perfect exposure with lots of pop. Nice dramatic sky, Jokester.

Electricity was gone here for a second and I lost my plugins in Lightroom aargh. I had to reload the library and now I have to reinstall the plugins as well... Just can't be bothered with it right now.

You've been laying down some nice shots Tarowah.

[anachlores]

Really nice shot there tarowah. Jeeze, now how come I don't have any broken down sheds where I live. Affluent suburbs are the pits! ;P

[ripken204]

[Lestat]

I was thinking about printing a big version of this and giving it to the fire dept.
