Post processing question.

Canew · 7th November 2005

This is my first attempt to post-processed photographs. Would like comments from the folks that are more experieced in post processing.
My questions are:
1. Are most of the photos posted post-proccessed (in this case, bumped up the colour saturation)?
2. If the answer to Q1 is 'YES', then what are the post-processing that are normally done?
TIA.

BEFORE PROCESSING:

AFTER PROCESSING: (took it in RAW and then coverted to JPEG)

Yes for me. I'll most definitely play ard with the curves. Not sure whether if it's my monitor but you seem to have over saturated the colors

Post process...
diff ppl have diff liking..
so for example of yr photos, some may like, but some dun like the red colour so striking.(over saturated)

In another words u see wat u like, for clients, give them wat they like.

u could use curves to fix the tones too...not juz using the saturation bar to make the colours more punchy
