Well barely finished these. Been working on it all day! :p I tried a lot of new techniques and i'm actually happy with the results. Anyone feeling this type of edit?
C&C away for me! I love C&C I've been trying new stuff here lately and some i love some i don't, so its nice to see what others think.
With that said..
I love the shot you posted. i will say that something is off with the way you save the file or export it to photoshop possibly i say that because on my phone the image looks dull and the colors are all off... on my 27in imac everything looks nice. I would have probably gotten rid of the light pole and possible the shadow of the mirror. other than that dud i have no complaints worth complaining about. it looks amazing.
I agree with Skrap. Everything looks good, but the lightpole is a bit sore and the shadow also. The sky is a bit too vibrant for my taste, but it's not my picture! So if that's what you were going for then it looks good!
I'm also a Lightroom user although I think there's a little Photoshop in this shot:
Before/After
Only thing I'm not happy with is the horrible reflection on the nose, I'll get round to touching it up some day when I feel I can do it.
Anyone else using LR find it labours a lot once you start using the adjustment brush on more than 1-2 things in the image?
The below image nearly killed my pc, its a pano using 6 raw files. Besided the basic and colour adjustments there's a graduated filter and two area's where I used the adjustment brush - same for all 6 images. This really made the pc stuggle and it took ages to merge them in photoshop and save as a PSD.
Lightroom definitely takes some life out of your machine. I use mostly light room. anything i do with color is done in light room. any removal or added effects are done in PS. My mac runs lightroom like a dream so im not complaining. It's also one of the most expensive iMac's you can get. But i work for apple so it didnt hurt the wallet so much lol.

I need to start learning photoshop a bit more. I can do some basic stuff in it, not affraid/intimidated by it either just never had a need for it.
If adjustment brushes and gradients are easier on a machine in PS I should prob learn to use them properly and use LR for all but that.
Is there a loss of data going from a RAW file in LR to a psd in PS? Or is the psd file just a container for the RAW file and I still have all the info available from when I shot the image?
