Means the same jerry, the UK version.

Doubt they will find anything either. There wont be much left of the drone if they ever find it. Needle in a haystack.

Saw this on the BBC news yesterday. I've read "for" and "against" arguments on here about the use of drones but this must take the biscuit for irresponsibility.

About the best I could do. Hard to come up with ideas.

Here's my effort R.G.

Started out in Lightroom, but I am having an issue with the brush tool trying to paint out the mask in the gradient tool, so I had to send it to Photoshop to work on the sky and finish off.

Played about with split toning to get the general effect, with a bit local dodging and burning. Tried Viveza 2 (Nic Collection) to finish it off and liked the effect but when I made the image small the wrong bits stood out, so I reduced the opacity of the layer to about 25%.

I've always found that reducing the size of image (as if it is far away) gives you a better idea of what the finished image will look like. I've found many issues with my work by doing this that are not as obvious when working full size.

By the way, I also like the effect that Linda From Maine produced - nice work Linda.

Used the DNG link R.G. Plenty to play with there. All in photoshop.

Thanks for your post.

The Nikon next to the card is a Pentax.

It's a good from me.

I used to use photoshop and swore by ACR.
When I subscribed to Adobe CC and got Lightroom as well I decided that as I'm paying for it, I might as well give it a go. After using ACR it did not take me long to get into Lightroom and it is now my preferred editing program.

The only issue I had was when I upgraded to Windows 10 and a member here told me to turn off my graphics card - problem solved but this had nothing to do with Adobe.

Wonderful memories R.G. My cousin had a boat not unlike the one the one in your shot. We would set a drift net then check and re-bait the lobster pots before pulling the drift back in.

Happy times but it could get a bit choppy in The Minch in such a small boat. The people of the Hebrides are so friendly and I'm pleased to hear you have connections there yourself.

Here's my go R.G.

My surname is MacKinnon and my father came from a croft in Tong, just outside of Stornoway, Isle of Lewis.

Spent a lot of time there over the years visiting family but sadly none are left now. A lot of nostalgia here for me.

Thanks for your post.

Here's my go Shakey,

Started in Lightroom to straighten and make universal adjustments much like Jim-pops, then into photoshop for local adjustments with masks.
Removed noise and sharpened using the shop signs as a guide as I did not know the texture of the walls.

Thanks again for the exercise - keep them coming :thumbup: :thumbup:

Stunning when viewed in download.
