This appears to be straight out of camera. What post processing did you do to this image? It’s a lovely location. I just think you could improve this image significantly with some editing.
yeah probably does... i thought a natural look woulk look nice. i tweeted the color's temperature and luminosity to a point u thought was nice and for sure a lot nicer than the raw... but probably was not as good as i thought. any suggestions?
I think the biggest way you can improve this is is by using radial filters and gradients to get your subjects to be the brightest thing in the image instead of all of the open white sky. I wish there was a way for me to send you a picture. When you asked me how I would edit this I literally took a screenshot of it and edited that in the light room. Are you on Twitter?
i would like to see that. yeah im on twitter @john_liako. it was a lot darker cause of the strong backlight and i was not sure how bright should i get it.
This is a shot that needs have a straight horizon. The left lean is a little off-putting, but I like the pose overall. I think if she looked into camera and he looks at her would make for a better pose. Also, they should be fully in the right 3rd. All of the things mentioned, could make for a great shot. Would you by chance have the RAW you could throw up on Dropbox or something? Would love to take a crack at it and show you what I mean!
ooh your right it leans on the left... i was looking in the front line to be straight and lost it.. my bad. how would you like to send it?
I believe if you click on my name, you can send me a private message and if you have Dropbox or OneDrive, you can send it there! For the straightening of the image, always go by the horizon line if adjusting an image horizontally, if there is no horizon line, then you adjust to a vertical line. If there is neither horizon or vertical, then you're on your own :P. Definitely send me the RAW, I'd love to have a go at it!
