Very nicely done Judy! Thanks for hosting another great subject. I enjoy learning how other's process their work.
Here is a nice Buck I saw on Assateague a few months back. I was actually following a doe and lost her but found him!

It was difficult to get perfect focus with all the brush and a way too big of a job to remove branches so for this one I just sharpened and cropped using Photoscape Pro X.

Looks great!

The Champion Burr Oak near McBaine, MO. Which is close to Columbia, MO. Wouldn't really call this a do over, I took this in 2014 and had never worked it up until a couple of days ago. Was looking for another photo and found this one. Ran thru Photomatix and then CCS to finish it. Largest Burr Oak in Missouri, takes about 8 people holding hands to stretch around the tree.


Great job!

I've had some fun cruising my archives and finding many photos that I had never PP'd! It's amzaing how many

just needed a "Push" - Cropping, adjusting light, defination, sharpening, vinette, shdow reduction, etc. All can

bring out the true properties that you wanted! So show us the original shot and what you did to improve it AND of

Course, THE FINAL SUCCESS!

Awesome idea for a challenge, Judy! I'm really looking forward to everyone's submissions.

You did a great job in adding some "pop" to your image...nicely done.

The image below was one I touched up and posted in yesterday's "Free Sunday" Challenge.

Had to make a lot of adjustments to this one. I was playing around with ETTR, or expose to the right, which supposedly allows you to capture more info in the RAW image that can be manipulated in post processing.

When I got to "post," that was the first thing I corrected. Went from +1.5 to -1.5 stops; then I adjusted both the shadows and blacks to -100, increased clarity to +47 and vibrance to +58. Then it was time to mask out a lot of the background, especially all the white elements like the stove. After all that, I corrected the horizon; again, normally I'm pretty careful with that when taking a picture, but if you look at the stove in the background, I blew that as well.

Normally, I am a little more careful with my placement of subjects/objects, but when this image was captured, the house was an absolute wreck...thus lots and lots of "masking." LOL
Awesome idea for a challenge, Judy! I'm really loo... (show quote)


A big improvement there.
