Post Photosho World 2008, I'm finding I'm having a long of fun testing out images, and developing a style, for better or worse, in image enhancement. Here are some trials and errors. While I come from a graphic design background, my recent challenges have been how to use Photoshop for photography, rather than design. I'm finding it takes some time to develop an artistic eye purely for photography, without design elements. I'm sure this is a bit elementary for some... but I'm happy with my progress!
Portrait of Xavier - After. I played a bit with a new Color Efex Pro filter from Nik Software. I used the skylight filter, as well as a bit of manual vignette (levels adjustments with a mask). I wasn't going to worry about the blown out shoulder... I was just happy with the overall effect.
