People Toss It Up.....

Rupert · 06-25-2012, 12:07 PM

....and see if it sticks?

Vasly said he liked this one, maybe better than the other one.......maybe I do too, but it is not without problems either. The bride and her Mom loved this one, and I printed it just like it is shown here...I was just too worn out from trying to do anything else with so many photos.

Anyhow, if anyone wants to play with it and re-post here, help yourself! I might like to see a B/W version if anyone wants to give it a whirl? Whatever suits you. I was particularly unhappy with the green in the background.

This was in bright sunshine, yet I used flash because of the dark shadows I was seeing, which helps explain the sort of weird look of this photo...and the other one too. Sometimes weird works OK....sometimes not......the bride loved it, so I guess I got by this time!

Best Regards!

I hope you don't mind that I had a try too.......its a bit quick and dirty lol..........

GD.....The better contrast and color is a real improvement to my eyes...but that green still bugs me!

Janstew....Love the reworked clouds, the crop is near perfect, and you eliminated that ugly green! Color and contrast is better than mine too! Mail me that file so I can print it!

Regards!

Anyone for trying a B/W? I'm not so hot with B/W.

Who you asking, Jan?

janstew · 06-28-2012, 02:39 AM

probably Rupert but any one will do

Rupert · 06-28-2012, 06:19 AM

Jan, just go to the PM and type in Rupert. That is also a good version, I like it! I think I got a better capture of "mood" than I did of good IQ, but it works for me. Sometimes you just have to take what you get....for me, that is quite often!

Regards!
