7-point photoshop starting to pay off

0806IMG_0892_015

I've been working through the Scott Kelby's 7-point system for photoshop and it's starting to make sense after nine ofthe twenty one practical lessons. Somethings are still not intuitive, but some are making sense so obviously it's time to branch out and try some of my own images. The landscape above is a nice example of the power of the Lab mode technique that Scott advocates. Before processing the image was a little flat and lacking in contrast, and my intended strength of colour wasn't quite there. A little bit of the learnings applied and it's a much better picture. Right now I'm still not sure photoshop gurus will find much new in Scott's book, but if your still wondering how other photographers seem to get nicer images from files than you do it's worth reading and definitely working through.
