No More Post-Processing For Awhile
My carpal tunnel is getting very painful. Along with seeking medical treatment, I have to reduce my time in front of a computer. This means I have to limit the amount of painstaking post-processing (along with cropping) I do to my photos. Because I cannot rely on Photoshop and Lightroom, I have to start taking better pictures right off the bat. To usher in this new "era", here are some of my recent San Francisco pictures that could benefit from some additional post-camera work.
Problem: Why do I avoid shooting feet?
Photo info of the previous four images: Shutter priority, 52.5mm focal length, f/4, 1/1000 sec, ISO 200, no flash.
Photo info: Shutter priority, 52.5mm focal length, f/7.1, 1/200 sec, ISO 200, no flash.
Problem: Missing too much of Mike:
Photo info: Shutter priority, 52.5mm focal length, f/4.5, 1/1000 sec, ISO 200, no flash.
Problem: Need to expose Andrew's face a bit more:
Photo info: 52.5mm focal length, f/5, 1/1600 sec, ISO 200, flash at full power on Andrew's forearm, DOH!
Photo info: 52.5mm focal length, f/4, 1/200 sec, ISO 200, no flash.
Problem: Too much on-camera flash on Andrew's face:
Photo info: 52.5mm focal length, f/2.2, 1/2000 sec, ISO 200, on-camera flash in auto mode.
Problem: A telephoto lens would be nice:
Photo info: Shutter priority, 52.5mm focal length, f/3.5, 1/1000 sec, ISO 200, no flash.
Photo info: Shutter priority, 52.5mm focal length, f/4.5, 1/1000 sec, ISO 200, no flash.
Photo info: Shutter priority, 52.5mm focal length, f/4.5, 1/1000 sec, ISO 200, no flash.
Switching gears: I liked how I caught most of the disk along with all of Su-Wen:
Photo info: Shutter priority, 52.5mm focal length, f/4.5, 1/1000 sec, ISO 200, no flash.
Typing this blog post is painful, but I can't give everything up!
