Having spent some time on Phlearn photography lessons today, I set out to develop a better idea about what it is to go too far with image processing. Where all photos get taken in RAW format but become processed by various tools and utilities in Photoshop CC. There are limits to understanding what actions get taken to meet specific objectives. Much of it about a cleanup, composition corrections, or slight adjustments in color, sharpness, and exposure.
Not for creativity or enhancement to make an image something it wasn’t. That has its place and I really want to start something there with random objects among images capture. More abstracts, people, and structures. More about light. More about the weather, mood, and atmosphere.
More spontaneity with images by everyday happenstance.
This is an image I spent time on to apply new principles learned. There are several before and after images compared. There are still issues with the image, but I’m not yet at a point where I can tell if those issues are normal. I believe there are issues I’m seeing with metering and there isn’t enough experimentation with program modes.
