in particular Photoshop Post Production..

How have your styles changed over the last few years.

When I descovered photoshop I used to heavily saturate colours, over sharpen images, and use too much contrast.

Now I like to see the whole tonal range in the photograph withought being a HDR ( cos Im no good at them yet and I only like real looking HDR )

I especially love to see black and white photographs with the smooth tonal range and soft light.


So how have your styles and tastes developed over the years or since you started photographing:??

Same boat as you Scotty, apart from the sharpening bit, it never used to sharp and couldnt understand why my shots were fuzzy etc :confused:
Nowdays i do alot of dodging and burning especially on coastal shots. With the 5d2 saturation isnt a problem as most shots are already pretty saturated.
Also i use split RAW and manually blend HDR, not a fan of heavily processed HDR
