Rob8891 Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 I see another image of mine has gone??? ^ I don't get it... why?! Carry your own specimen in case of urine test??? I think the answer to your question is in the photo. Clearly, someone is taking the ........... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dancealot Posted December 31, 2014 Author Share Posted December 31, 2014 You're too rough on your exposure there, Ron. Loosing those unnecessary banners would help as well. Here's another over-exposed shot: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob8891 Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 (edited) That's much better with the tight crop, Ron! Is it my imagination, or is there a blue cast to this? (not being rude...I'm colour blind!!) I'm guessing that the rider has a white cardy and a white bike (or incredible luck in co-ordinating bike and wardrobe!) I messed with it a little in a freebie program I have, and reduced the cast a bit, but I'm sure others can do far better.

sunshine51 Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 Ron...on your pic #1601... Good you cropped out the banners as suggested. Rob...your colour correction oversaturated the cropped pic. Then again maybe it's the diference between our monitors?! Ron...The whites in the pic are just too hot and yes there was a blue cast to the whites. Try a better white balance next time...perhaps on a white car in the same light or even in diffused shade. Or... set your camera to auto white balance and go from there. Then again...there's always this...but it's kinda still too hot...no detail in the whites, not the fine detail, the rough detail. Try a better white balance to start.

Rob8891 Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 Sunshine Yup, I agree, but I wasn't joking about the colourblindness...when I was a parttime firey, I failed every test on the charts when they upped us to using BA, but since I'd been in the brigade for 11 years by then and hadn't got myself burned to a crisp, they decided I'd be OK.... I fiddled around for quite a while with that pic....am just starting to learn a little about colour balancing. I thought the saturation was a bit high, but when I reduced it, the blue seemed (to me) to seep through again. ....Apart from the defective eyes, I guess I had better try to get treatment for the tight grip on my wallet and move away from Faststone to some serious software, as per the advice given elsewhere.

sunshine51 Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 ^^^Rob... You serious about colour blindness? If so, your pix really don't show it! New software when it's affordable for you....keep taking the pix. Keep it up matey! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob8891 Posted January 1, 2015 Share Posted January 1, 2015 (edited) ^^ 100% serious....All those pretty little pastel patterns with the hidden numbers?.. Didn't see a single one of them I got hauled into the Div Commander's office. He asked me if I could see black...Of course, says I. Grey? Yes! Red? YES! Then in that case, you're too damn close to the fire. Get the <deleted> out of there. Go back to your unit and keep doing whatever it was you were doing. 100% true story As I was just telling Goompa, it only affects me when I start to tinker with colour balances - one reason why most of my posts (except very recently) have been as naked as my camera will allow when taking jpegs. The other reason is I like o keep the shots as near to life as possible. EDIT TO ADD... If anyone is thinking about editing software, I have just started using Faststone Image Viewer. Not bad for a freebie, but obviously itisn't going to have all the bells and whistles the big boys have. Nevertheless, it's worth a look.....and great for batch resizing photos ...
