On Sight Unseen

The Construction of Interest #2. With @Saint_Sara I hear a lot of people talking about getting it right out of the camera. I’m not a heavy Photoshop user (in fact it’s rare I jump into Photoshop specifically these days) but the post-processing is every bit as important. There are things you can’t reproduce in post that you need get correct in the initial setup but with 1-2 stops of head room when shooting raw, there’s a lot you can push and pull in an image to change the tone and feel of an image.  And yes, I’m having fun with LR4 beta.
