A couple of photos from our stay down on Table Rock Lake this week. All straight jpgs out of the camera.

Thanks Dale, that means a lot coming from a photographer such as yourself!
You are most welcome. As you know, I call them as I see them, and these were all nicely shot. I particularly liked the 2nd image, with the sunrise coming through the bridge trusses. I was tempted to suggest opening the shadows in the bridge with the shadows slider in Photoshop, but the image works well as it is.

We just got home yesterday so I haven't had time to run the RAW photos through Photoshop yet. These were straight jpegs out of the camera. Even so, I thought they came out fairly well given the dynamic range. I do have some video as well that I'll post later when I get a chance to edit some together.
Thanks Dale!

Well, this being a slow Saturday, I took the time to play with the image. Look at the great histogram. I am attaching both before and edited versions and the ACR controls. In Adobe Camera RAW (ACR) I opened the shadows, increased vibrance and saturation, decreased highlights, and did a little sharpening in the water and shadows beneath the bridge. I brought out some warmth in the clouds. The image "pops." Tell me what you think. Bridge at Sunset- edited by Dale.jpgUn-edited version.jpgScreen Shot 2021-06-05 at 1.37.22 PM.png

I like it. When I get a chance, I'll mess around with the RAW file and see what I come up with. I put it in a dropbox link for you. Here's the RAW file if you want to try your hand at it...or anyone else for that matter. DJI_0887.DNG

I just spent another 30 minutes on it!!! I brought the image into LUMINAR 4 for special effects and added some sun rays, and more development of the sky and I added a little sparkle in the water near one of the bridge tresses.

Hope you like it.
