Wouldn't say that - looks like you've made a great start! Lovely colours in #4

ray · 13-05-2008, 19:05

Its nice to hear that mark thanks

**stepheno** · 13-05-2008, 20:25

Excellent colour. Put a couple of spaces between your images, Ray. I thought the top two was one photo

JMitchell · 13-05-2008, 21:02

Nice set Ray, but yeah put spaces

Also, the WB looks a little cool, but no biggie

Is that ok stepeno

Very nice set Ray

. No 4 has lots of good colours in it and it looks as though there would have been several very good close ups in it as well as the over view.

I particularly like number 2

JMitchell · 14-05-2008, 10:16

Ok ray hope you don't mind, but I liked one of your shots so much that I decided to warm up the White balance just to show you what I mean!

Hope you like it

Yes jack i like it ,it seems to be a little yellower now what did you use...Ray

JMitchell · 14-05-2008, 11:28

I just went into PS and use the 'color balance' tool (adjustment layer), and moved the sliders away from blue until it looked how I wanted

Charlotte · 14-05-2008, 13:52

These are very good Ray

Agree, the WB of the first three need warming up a bit. Great comosition in #2 + #4. Fab colours in #4.

#4 is my fav

Any idea why the camera didnt sort the white balance

Sometimes will happen, especially when you get a bias towards a particular hue (camera will try it's best but prefers a mix of all colours not just a couple). Of course you can help it along by selecting the main colour characteristic: sunny, shade, tungsten light, etc

Charlotte · 14-05-2008, 23:25

Also try to make sure you are standing (/sitting/whatever) in the same lighting conditions as the scene you are shooting, because if you are standing, for example, in the shade but your subject is in bright sunshine, your WB will be affected.
