Free Raws for practice

Julesj · #1 05-07-2008, 11:43 AM

Here are a couple of images I shot a while back that I thought could be used to practice on. I'm interested in different peoples styles etc so feel free to experiment.

Please do not pass off as your own!!

Here's what they look like....

Just some quick toning

More quick toning maybe a little more of a cross processed look

Wow, thanks! I've never had the chance to work with RAW. That was fun.
Here's my take.
If anyone has opinions on this I would appreciate it too.
Something just looks a little...off. Not the focus, I can't put my finger on it.

Here's the other one.
Nice pictures. Thank you again for the photos to play with.

I'm curious about RAW. Now is it that RAW is just easier to recover bad shots (i.e. too dark, bad color)?

I figured out what it was on the last picture. Her lipstick seems smudged on the edge of the upper lip.

Amazing the details you see after you've been up close and personal with a photo.

i gave it a try, i really liked the pic, even it wasn't that good quality (talking about the pixels, not the lightning)

here a link for a 60% close up of the face to see the quality of the retouching.

hope you like!

(the colour looks a bit paler on the site, on photoshop it doesn't)

EDIT> i posted a more touched one! hope you like. yes i did make her jacket more soft pink on purpose (the 'stripes' on the background are not present in Photoshop, and this time the overal image looks a bit more saturated than it does in ps )
