Day 5

365 photos,

As I wasn´t very happy with any of the photos today, I decided to play a little with photoshop. I have hardly ever used photoshop before but I really want to learn more about it. I guess the best way is just to play around a little.
So today´s photo is this red little fella from the market. Fiffed around a little bit to make the background whiter and the colors stronger.
I really must stop being so picky about the photos though, I´m not getting anything else done.
shutter speed 1/6
aperture f6.44
ISO 400
focal length 49mm

I love this picture - very bright color!
This is great, the colours are just right. I'm all for playing around on photoshop, I love that you can change the whole mood or focus of a photo. I've probably learnt as much about colour and lighting from doing that as I have out with my camera.

Dont be discouraged, no one learned without making mistakes. What matters is that you are trying. Keep up the good work.
Thanks for following my blog.
I just love the colors of this. They are so good I can almost taste the tomato!
I'm just starting out with Photoshop too, and there is so much to learn! I already use Adobe Lightroom so I'm trying to figure out how to integrate both in my workflow... hope you can share some Photoshop tips if you find good ones!
Thanx for all the comments. Photoshop is fantastic, I still don´t know all the functions so I need to play around for a long time before getting the results I want. I already have one tip though, from my own experience, for other beginners: make a note of the changes you make on a photo while you are learning, or it might be difficult to duplicate the results later on!
