            What is the digital darkroom technique you speak of?

              Digital darkroom?

              Be careful not to get any chemicals on your memory stick. 😉

                  It's the workflow process and technique I use in Photoshop and a few other software progs to fine tune a digital photo.
                  For example: The Havana Rooftop Pano is composed of two shots that have been stitched together, separated into different layers that are adjusted for contrast, levels etc. Then merged to output the final shot as posted.

                    digital darkroom really sounds funny and amusing but indeed an acceptable term nowadays in digital photography: the machine you use in post process (computers, post processing software, your printer, all your gadgets so to speak)... funny word right?
                    Nowadays Adobe Photoshop offers all these techniquess in the darkroom.

                            nomeradona,
                            Well, I definitely need to to start getting into HDRI. All I need is to upgrade to PhotoShop CS2+ and a new camera that allows me to bracket and shoot Raw/Tif. Hey, it's only $$$$ and trying to decide on the camera.

                            Interesting how changing the temp alters the visual perception of the shot. Does the tall building in the warm image flare at the top?
                            Too bad others haven't decided to participate in this forum. I feel like it's just the two of us trading shots and it feels a little self indulgent. I was hoping this would catch on... guess not.
                            cheers,
                            DE

                              What's new with the Nikon Bubba

                              Nothin new at the moment... been kinda busy but I hope to have a few shots in a couple of days! For my class assignment, I'm supposed to take a picture of a 'W' and a '3', '7', and '9'. There are a lot of numbers on road signs on the way home and apartment numbers around me so it should be interesting to see what I can come up with.

                              Nomer, where do you find the time to take all these pictures? The baby pic in your duotones set is a great shot...

                              PS - Can any of you recommend a good tri-pod for me to use?

                                Well at least you have me... I'm not great but I'm still trying...

                                Here are a couple of pics from this weeks assignment. I still have a couple more to take but here is the '3', 'W' and a panning shot...


                                '3'


                                'W'


                                Panning (stay in one spot and rotate the camera...)

                                  Hey BubbaLove...
                                  Love the shots.
                                  Comments if you don't mind...
                                  #1 Great colors and creative subject. Very dynamic. Remember the assignment is the number 3 - consider a way to lead the viewer to the subject of your shot. You could do this by blurring the surrounding boxes more or darkening them so they are in shadow.
                                  #2 Same here. Creative thinking. 'W' is the subject, however, it is the one that is out of focus so your eye goes to the MEN.
                                  #3 Love this. B&W is a great choice.
                                  You've got a good eye and I think your shots will keep getting better.

                                    Thanks DE... I noticed that about the womens sign too. I'm gonna see if I can take another shot to get the 'W' in focus. I'll see what I can do in Photoshop to the movies pic to get the eye to draw toward the '3'...

                                    If you are allowed to use PhotoShop then it's a simple matter of playing around.
                                    The trick is to make all adjustments in layers. Duplicate your background. Go to the Layers dropdown and use New Adjustment Layers. That way each modification such as Levels, Brighness etc., are in their own layers and you can see what each one does - when you are happy flatten or merge. Also, don't forget about Filters - Render - Lighting Effects.
                                    Good luck... next time bring a friend.

                                        DE as for HDRI i dont actually like Phtoshop CS3 or what. i am actually using Photomatix here now. Its great and its just 99$. you can even download a free trial here http://www.hdrsoft.com/

                                        as for the temperature.. i can just play easily by saving two HDR using different temperature and compose them using Photoshop. All you have to do is oppen this two image in phtoshop and place them on top of each other. apply mask on the top layer and using gradient (black to transparency) applied it on the top layer.
