My colleague Georg at a local strobist shooting. Postprocessed in the Dave Hill manner.

Comments and critiques very welcome.

Playing around at the lake today, then applying some heavy post processing. Shots taken with my 85mm f/1.8 lens.

For those who are wondering... it's a portrait of a sad wall...
Used RawShooter Essentials to pop the image out some more. The WhiBal cards helps since they are extremely close to the 18% reflectance as per the color Spectometer. I can set the white balance with the cards and apply the settings to any other shots I take in the same room with the same lighting enviroment.
This is a reference for all my photos this week: Duchemin recommended that, "next time you’re photographing something, take a little extra time to be aware of what is in, and out, of the frame, and try moving—do a complete circle around your subject if you have to—and see if you can’t strengthen your image that way." I did just that with all my photos this week, I made sure to carefully frame each image, I shot at different angles and different distances.
He also recommended to use a wider aperture and get closer to create a shallower DOF.
He said, “A softer focus on the background can diminish the pull on the eye, which in turn strengthens the impact of the elements in focus.”
My intention with this photo was to try to create tonal contrast by isolating the subject with post processing.
I think it has great tonal contrast I tried to photographer from the "dead cats" POV playing with his pumpkin toy.
For editing: I did some cleaning up. Sharpened and used noise reduction. I also did some dodging and burning, cropped and finished editing in ACR. I added B&W layer and tweaked the color mixer to my liking. Added curves layer, B & W layer, vignetting and brightness and contrast

'His end was all most sudden
As hour the mandate came
Expess from Heaven -
His foot did slip, and he did fall
Help, help, he cries
And that was all'.
0057 Playing with PS HDR toning and gradient map. Trying to separate myself from the average shooter with post processing. Any and all critique is welcome!
This is the original photograph of an abandoned chicken barn that I photoshopped into a somewhat different and, I hope, better image last month. I edited it extensively to begin with------and now, I'd like to see what the PostProcess group can do to improve it.

Because I'm a nerdo, and I didn't feel like going to bed, I went to town on (1) taking pics of my eye and (2) playing with them in photoshop.
