RAW mist... by northy

RAW mist...

Mist again today... and this time i shot in RAW... and maybe even sort of developed in Lightroom... and i thought it was ok, but there were these annoying yellow signs (Danger Will Robinson! Danger!)... i tried to colour over them... and then i tried to selective UNcolour them... and finally i just started playing around with Lightroom's black and white presets... and yeah... so... this!

It does kinda look nice large too :)

Macro shot for one night stand is in my other album:

Done now, carry on y'all

This s so beautiful! You sure do mist well. I love this! Fav
January 14th, 2013  
I like how you ended up! I always shoot in RAW though I don't do a lot of processing...kinda scares me! This is very cool.
January 14th, 2013  
Oh, must have been fun shooting that. I still need to learn Lightroom as well - need to get a book or something! And hello, reply back with dates. Looking for mid-February meet up. :)

Lightroom looks like Camera Raw CS6, right? In PS CS6 Camera Raw, this would be easy it seems to me. What does Lightroom do that makes it so difficult? i wonder.

BTW, Excellent shot. apart fro any other extraneous conversations.

Great shot and it looks like a lovely place for a walk! Yay you for shooting raw! (my monitor is, in fact, tilted. get out of my head)
January 14th, 2013  
A wonderful mood to the shot!

Wonderful focus, DOF, atmosphere...oh...it's just all good!

This is really, really lovely. Don't you just hate when you have a great shot, but some small detail is in your way? Nice job with shooting in RAW, it's a lot of work, but so much fun!
January 14th, 2013

January 14th, 2013  
A wonderful result.
January 14th, 2013  
@frankhymus actually - developping in lightroom (assuming i did it more or less correctly), wasn't too awful this go around... i tried it for a few days in the summer and it just confused the heckouta me... but i've been doing a lot more post processing in lightroom of late, so maybe that's why dealing with RAW didn't seem so daunting...

Glad you're getting comfortable in raw and Lightroom. . .that's my workflow! I agree with someone above, too - you DO really do mist well! You're getting all sorts of specialties!!
January 14th, 2013

January 14th, 2013  
Lovely spot, lovely shot.
January 14th, 2013  
@northy Latest release of Lightroom? I use Photoshop CS6 and its huge upgrade to Camera RAW, the technology behind Lightroom Adobe says. Perhaps Lightroom got a recent push up too? CS6 Camera RAW is a delight to work with.
January 14th, 2013  
@frankhymus I have LR4 and its supposedly made strides since last version... But being new to RAW I have no basis for comparison...
January 14th, 2013
