A Little Photoshop work
| Labels: Military, People | Posted On Tuesday, March 16, 2010
So while I was doing the little photoshoot with the cadets in the last post, I got a shot that was pretty cool, but there were a few crucial errors that needed to be fixed.
Original Shot:
For the entire shoot, I had inadvertently left the ISO on 1600, so most of the shots were extremely grainy. Yes. Sad. But not unheard of in the life of a very amateur photographer.
The sky was already cloudy that day, and with the ISO cranked up to 1600, I had a LOT of light in the picture. I wanted to get rid of the white sky, and also throw something military in it. So I added an F-16 flying overhead with a smoke trail.
I then softened the picture to eliminate some of the ISO noise, and TADAAAAAA. A REAL picture. Not brilliant, but a significant improvement upon the first shot.
Final Shot:
