Nice shot. However, I think the WB is a bit off - looks a bit too yellow / green on my monitor. Maybe it's the style you're going for, as several seem coloured the same way

ahhhh fairy nuff

Take a look at star_rounder.dbf, a Photoshop plugin, it makes streaked stars rounder....

Thanks, will do

Pete - one on the right is used to being in front of my camera, i've taken a few shots of him when he's played at gigs, they wanted a nice photograph for their mums birthday next weekend (thisn't the shot )

Nice Bob. Was that taken in a studio?

You're right, looking at it now I think I did overdo the green a bit on that photo. Thanks for the feedback, I'll keep it mind for shots in the future

Trying to nail the lomographic look... pity I won't know how well it will translate on different colour spaces & monitors.

but its in focus..

needs more contrast and a colour cast (whites are still white in your shot) and you need to blow highlights imo

Thanks for the tips. This version any better?

Attempt 2

[Bobster]

much better

but the thing that makes lomo is the focus point, the contrast and saturation of the images as well as the colour casts - the cheap plastic camera leaked light etc..

something like this is more a lomo look

And a bit of local pollution from the animal rendering plant.

The Red Planet, Glen Coe by TimSmalley, on Flickr

I like that Tim, the house gives it a real sense of scale.

I'm not so keen on the sky colour being so close to the hills themselves though as it makes all merge a bit red but that's just my opinion.

I love your landscapes, superb scenery and you have a real eye for a stunning capture
I think that the shot with the oak is particularily beautiful.

27,000 images and growing, just got LR3 but learning PP - this is straight out of camera apart from cropping. I must admit to being a b&W lover but the colours were too beautiful with this one of my nephew - was actually at my own wedding!!



My own thoughts that PP could maybe it was a little bright, comments welcomed.

EDIT: The original looks much less green and richers in LR and the original file compared to how it looks here ????

This is the original resized only in photobucket:



Not sure what has happened - ahhhh - apart from me possibly saving the crop in a different colourspace.....................

Cheers guys

It was weird light that morning Bobster - lasted 5 minutes at the most. I maybe overdid the effects going for the 'Tim Burton' look. I'll have another play with it.

Some great landscapes in your Flickr Tim.

Some great colour in that second one Syd - nuisance that wee branch.
