All in all for most of my photographs all i had to do was convert to black and white, up the contrast and clarity slightly and they were done. for me this just shows how much of an improvement I have made in my photographic skill as Im doing less editing in post production and getting it right in camera first.
Out of my final images these are the more serious edits. mostly in terms of cropping and slight rotations due to the 80-200m lens being heavy and me not holding the camera straight but I still think that these edits are still very minimal compared to some of the things I used to have to do.
CROP CROP BABY
Much better portrait crop, too much going on in the initial photo and detracts attention away from the DEACON AT THE FRONT.
WORST OF THE EDITS!
I didn’t realise my wide angle lens filter was slightly dirty and the exposure wasn’t long enough. i had a lot of spot removal and I turned the exposure up. Thanks to shooting raw i was able to save a nice image.
Slightly better crop… Slight angle straightening..
Again straightening…
