That's well done.It's amazing what can be done with the editing software available today. Hunting is not a matter of life or death....It's much more important | |||

That is incredible! How did you go about adjusting the photo(programs, etc.). Jason "You're not hard-core, unless you live hard-core." _______________________ Hunting in Africa is an adventure. The number of variables involved preclude the possibility of a perfect hunt. Some problems will arise. How you decide to handle them will determine how much you enjoy your hunt. Just tell yourself, "it's all part of the adventure." Remember, if Robert Ruark had gotten upset every time problems with Harry Selby's flat bed truck delayed the safari, Horn of the Hunter would have read like an indictment of Selby. But Ruark rolled with the punches, poured some gin, and enjoyed the adventure. -Jason Brown | |||

On this one just adjusted the levels and colors in PS. Cloned away the bullet hole and cloned the sand so it would not be any footprints in it. To top it of I put some filters on it in Color Efex Pro II. ( Made some adjustments with yellow color from the right so it would look more like a sunset as it actually was when the photo was taken Cropped it and adjusted the horizon. | |||

Amazing! I don't see how this is possible after looking at that first photo. I guess I hit "delete" too often. ______________________ DRSS ______________________ Hunt Reports 2015 His & Her Leopards with Derek Littleton of Luwire Safaris - http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/2971090112 2015 Trophy Bull Elephant with CMS http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/1651069012 DIY Brooks Range Sheep Hunt 2013 - http://forums.accuratereloadin...901038191#9901038191 Zambia June/July 2012 with Andrew Baldry - Royal Kafue http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/7971064771 Zambia Sept 2010- Muchinga Safaris http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/4211096141 Namibia Sept 2010 - ARUB Safaris http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/6781076141 | |||

Jim this is why we like to shoot RAW instead of jpegs...even quite a number of point & shoot cameras offer this nowadays too Lots more data and latitude in post-processing | |||

One of Us |
OK, dumb question. If you "shoot RAW" (I presume this is a setting that has to be changed in the camera) does the picture still load as usual to programs like iPhoto or is there some type of conversion step? I'd be afraid to make things more complicated when I don't know much about anything but pointing the camera. ______________________ DRSS ______________________ Hunt Reports 2015 His & Her Leopards with Derek Littleton of Luwire Safaris - http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/2971090112 2015 Trophy Bull Elephant with CMS http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/1651069012 DIY Brooks Range Sheep Hunt 2013 - http://forums.accuratereloadin...901038191#9901038191 Zambia June/July 2012 with Andrew Baldry - Royal Kafue http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/7971064771 Zambia Sept 2010- Muchinga Safaris http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/4211096141 Namibia Sept 2010 - ARUB Safaris http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/6781076141 | |||

Yes Jim you need a RAW CONVERTER You can PM me if you need more explanation...no probs..as I do not want to hijack Anton's thread. I only thought to comment about being able to get MUCH more latitude from a RAW format when needed. | |||

I understand the "hijack" but I also thought it's good info for the rest of us. EVERYONE takes pictures on Safari but few of us have near the talent of Anton or yourself. If shooting RAW gives you more latitude in post production work but still allows someone like me to just plug my camera into my computer and load the pictures as usual then that would be the best of both worlds I suppose. Anton, sorry for the hijack. ______________________ DRSS ______________________ Hunt Reports 2015 His & Her Leopards with Derek Littleton of Luwire Safaris - http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/2971090112 2015 Trophy Bull Elephant with CMS http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/1651069012 DIY Brooks Range Sheep Hunt 2013 - http://forums.accuratereloadin...901038191#9901038191 Zambia June/July 2012 with Andrew Baldry - Royal Kafue http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/7971064771 Zambia Sept 2010- Muchinga Safaris http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/4211096141 Namibia Sept 2010 - ARUB Safaris http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/6781076141 | |||

That is really amazing. The bushbuck's coloration really come alive. Technology today is something else. Perhaps you could photoshop my head on somebody else posing with their trophies? It would save me a lot of money. I hunt, not to kill, but in order not to have played golf.... DRSS | |||

I have also begun working more with editing software (namely Adobe Lightroom), and have been able to salvage several photos that I otherwise would have deleted. Below are the "before & after" shots of a sunset I took near Mason, Texas in 2012. I was absolutely THRILLED when I realized what I was able to get out of this photo.... Before.... After.... _______________________________________________________ Hunt Report - South Africa 2022 Wade Abadie - Wild Shot Photography Website | Facebook | Instagram | |||

Man, I don't see how you can take a picture that looks so underexposed that it's black and do that to it.
