I’m still working on understanding the new Mac and LR so that I can post some macros, but since I also want to learn how to take landscapes (and especially sea and cloudscapes) with a DSLR camera, and will be soliciting help and criticism in future, I thought I’d show you where I’m starting from as well as some of the landscape around here. All snaps taken with much-loved Fuji compacts on auto and endlessly fiddled about with using free apps
I’ve looked through a lot of the landscapes here and they’re so impressive that they’ve given me something inspiring to aim for. I’d love to learn how to capture light the way you can.
Looking at these old photos with new eyes I’m thinking that one of the first things I’ll have to learn is how to use GND filters, either real or virtual. I know there’s no substitute for CPL’s and ND filters as yet but some people say that there’s no need for GND filters either anymore as it can all be done in PS. But there are so many good photographers out there still using GND filters that I can’t believe PS can give the same results. I’d be very grateful for advice about that.
If these photos fail to appear it means that I’ve failed at my first attempt to use Photobucket ....still unsure about this resizing business....
