 Posting Nineteen

“Image Study I”


Let’s see if you are ready to play judge and jury on some of my images. Look at the three images here and decide what, if any, changes need to be addressed. The advantage of playing judge on your own images weighs heavily in your favor when others view them. Look for the obvious:
   1. What about the contrast? Can you do a levels/curves adjustment to help here? Would a run through shadows/highlights be helpful?
   2. Does the image need any cloning? Look for distracting backgrounds.
   3. Will a tighter crop help the overall impact? Is there unwanted space around the image that a crop can eliminate?
   4. What about flipping the image and changing its perspective?
   5. Would you do selective or global sharpening?
   6. Or, is it destined for the “Delete” button?

Let me know what you think. I’ll post what I did to them next week and some of your comments.
