Still don't know why the colours are a little bland. Maybe my laptop monitor not calibrated.<br /><br />Keane: Yeah you got that right Nikon sb800 is on my wishlist.

You might want to consider some cheaper alternatives to the likes of Gary Fong and Strobox and giottos stands, BUT remember that your cheaper alternative is always just ONLY temporary to the original that you will work to get. This includes your Nissin, that I believe you will upgrade to a Nikon.<br /><br />If you can't fix your coloration when you shoot, fix it in photoshop, or lightroom. There is a section where you can tweak specific colours only.<br /><br />The best way to learn is to shoot in WB Temperatures(in Kelvin), also if you have the time like model shoots. That way you can tweak the white balance to ANYTHING you want before even shooting. In the words of Louis Pang, you should get as close to perfection in your camera before hitting photoshop.:: keanie-weanie ::https://www.blogger.com/profile/03318008835955397196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3485949760284279571.post-64253596261863133152010-04-25T09:17:24.015-07:002010-04-25T09:17:24.015-07:00Great shots I must say for starters =)
love the co...Great shots I must say for starters =)<br />love the colors~<br />Well some suggestions, u can try using softwares like photoshop or lightroom to post-process your pics~<br /><br />I can see some pics when after post-process it will turn out great~<br /><br />If using photoshop/lightroom is though for you, u can use google picasa opensource freeware tool<br />very simple and one-touch edit tool~<br /><br />FYI i use Picasa most of the time for quick PP-ingJustin Heehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11936018746164191309noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3485949760284279571.post-40900908974302449222010-04-25T07:42:40.849-07:002010-04-25T07:42:40.849-07:00Thank you my dark master..yeah did not think of di...Thank you my dark master..yeah did not think of diffusing the shots..as you know the only diffuser I have is a half cut orange juice bottle..but yeah some shadows are good..thanks for the heads up..in terms of colouration how do I improve it? I shot most of the shots in WB direct sunlight, vivid colours. With one level increase in sharpening and saturation.Melvinohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16127348788302541603noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3485949760284279571.post-54999679112009151122010-04-25T06:01:51.913-07:002010-04-25T06:01:51.913-07:00Would have to say pic no. 10 is the best in terms ...Would have to say pic no. 10 is the best in terms of composition. Silhouette shots are better if the model posed in a darker pose. Then it would create a better mysterious feel.<br /><br />I've seen shots with flashes in the day time and I understand the purpose of it. But I think you might have over-did it this time. You can see from the first few pictures that the flash was reflected off phei yee's face. It's very obvious that you used a flash, that created very harsh lighting. That's why you need diffusers, softboxes and umbrellas.<br /><br />Also, it is not to completely eliminate shadows as shadows create contrast, and dynamics which is good. The coloration is quite flat, really. Not my cup of tea.:: keanie-weanie ::https://www.blogger.com/profile/03318008835955397196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3485949760284279571.post-79384169366073082502010-04-24T22:38:54.788-07:002010-04-24T22:38:54.788-07:00Haha yeah..neway follow my blog larhHaha yeah..neway follow my blog larhMelvinohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16127348788302541603noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3485949760284279571.post-62990604161599252342010-04-24T18:44:49.687-07:002010-04-24T18:44:49.687-07:00What's with the bathtub? on the roof? probably...What's with the bathtub? on the roof? probably used by the workers on a rainy day...Abdul Azimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03959591981946128373noreply@blogger.com
