Re: New lens
The whites were burned in the straight from camera exposure-- because I had it in RAW format, it still retained extra pixel info that just wasn't seen at the exposure taken. As long as it was kept in RAW format i was able to get more detail from those areas. Shadow/highlights filter in PS is also very good at getting more details from an otherwise burnt out area.
But yeah big advantage over shooting JPEG is being able to repair spots like that. If it's burned with a JPEG you're outta luck.

Re: New lens
You're quite welcome glad it's got some good info in it. Basically if you adhere to the basic idea of seeing what details you need to open up/what areas need to be lightened/darkened to have a more balanced exposure, you'll have a way easier time editing stuff. There's obviously a lot more complicated stuff one can adapt to an edit but not every topping is for everyone's cake~

Re: New lens
It's kinda silly - I'm a film guy getting into photography, and i'm colorblind as hell. Editing with colors is hell for me lolz

Re: New lens
hi5 I'm absolutely blind for red/green undertones. They used to be discernible but now, a red might as well be a green, or a brown-- looks the same. Blue and purple and magenta are also identical. I usually get the colours way off, but I know when or when not to change colour temperature.
Doing that all with film... yikes. I feel your pain there. I worked in the paint department at home depot for 2 years, and I became known as the "go-to" guy for paint colour recommendations. (I AM THE WORST PERSON TO ASK THAT, I happened to know colour theory like the back of my hand, and could help people choose their OWN colours by asking them a bunch of colour related questions).

Re: New lens
lol damn props to you. We are in the same boat. Luckily, technology is getting so advanced that presets can work, but then again thats cheating and cheap and stupid and i dont like doing that lol. Yeah, I cant see yellows-greens and reds-oranges... purples-blues either...

Re: New lens
I'm especially afraid when editing pictures of people and doing touchups on skin and whatnot. I can't tell if i'm making someone look sick or not sometimes x__x
Here's a pic from my cruise trip. I may or may not have more worthy of posting but here's one for now.

Re: New lens
Love this one, the precision of the details is mesmerizing.
The only thing I would do, is to use a slightly bigger depth of field, because the left side of the iris is slightly blurried and it annoys me... And btw, the shot with the snail and flower is perfect in every possible way.

Re: New lens
Glad you dig the snail shot of mine, it's my personal favourite~ was reallllly happy when I got that shot
As for the eye, yeah, I should've shot at something above f/8 for the angle I was on. The lens I use has SUCH a short depth of field, you have to shoot at f/8 even when right over something. Usually f/16 or higher for any closer up @_@ glad you dig the details though~ I had to use some editing techniques to bring em out more. I usually have to do the same thing with every macro shot, my sensor just blurs out some of the finer stuff.

Re: New lens
Took the sunset pic tonight, testing out splitting a darker exposure of the sky and lighter exposure in the ground in the same raw shot (not HDR, just manually split).
Some portraits of me and the Linner~ : >
