Serious Photography is On-Line, Here. Upload an image for comments and critiques. The best one image you want looked at seriously. No ego, no bravado, no porn. The Uploaded image must be RGB, 5x7 300 dpi maximum. You must be a meet-up member to do this. Keep all redos on the same entry. Click on the pencil at the bottom of the entry to make edits. I will download the image, mark it up, make some changes and reload it to the same entry. Keep comments constructive and brief.
Submit good files.
The Goal is to use good camera skills to make good art that can be retouched seamlessly. CHECK YOUR HISTOGRAM and make sure you have a good exposure. A symbols directory of fixes can be seen at the symbols link. Who am I? Go to

This is it.
The original image is uploaded |
I mark it up for retouching or corrections |
Final image is displayed after photographer makes changes. |
To get good reviews, expose well, shoot with room to crop, crop tight in post production, fix dust and specks, check your curves and histogram. Keep detail in shadows and highlights. USE A TRIPOD.
We will not waste our time on shots that have camera movement blurs.
We will talk about lighting and play around with assignments.
Get to know Photoshop well. Its what we use for everything and a common language.
If you have a photo for a customer that needs to be fixed, I or someone can do that, but this is not a free service for commercial retouching.
Lets get started.
Submit your file and get ready.
