Lighting

I started this forum for any collecting hobby and it turned into my camera collecting and using forum. I use it mostly to keep a record of my photo adventures. Nobody but me seems to have photo adventures that visit here....but however. I have so many cameras now that I forget which is which and which ones work and which ones don't. If you have cameras and adventures you would be welcome to post here.

Lighting

Post by joseyclosey » Fri Sep 10, 2010 11:08 am

As you chaps know i cant remove my revolver from the Castle range and the lighting conditions in there are pretty bad so these are the best i can make them after tweeking the pics a as much as i can.

I normally prefer taking detail pics in good outdoor light so i dont have to fart about too much with the old software.

I kinda like the yellow tint. Looks like the photos are "aged" by too much sunlight.

Just for the hell of it I tried Irfanview on it. Just hit the sepia button.

Robert, i tried the sepia when i was playing about, along with some other more phsycadelic effects, i think i will try some black white shots next time. I used to enjoy shooting black and white film way back when.

This took me about 3 minutes to transform Joe But lighting is easily sorted with digital cameras. Use White Balance and Flash Compensation.
