Here are a few pictures taken on my trip to Ireland at Easter. Comments welcome. I spent a bit more time processing these ones that previous ones, starting to get the hang of that a bit more, but comments on the processing are very welcome. Very interested to hear how other people process their pictures in detail. I've been reading some useful things in magazines, however, they seem to focus on individual parts of the process such as adjusting saturation or adjusting the sharpness, not giving a start to finish guide. I'm interested in seeing how you guys do it.

Anyway, to the pictures

Nice shots, but I really do like that last one - it looks so peaceful and serene.

Nice shots!

just about big enough to see some detail. If you can link to larger versions in future you are OK up to 800 pixels.

If you click on them you can get versions up to 1600px :)

No doubt you can - but I rarely click off site links and don't think many other people do either.

First and last are my faves, though i'd like to see a crop of the first where the mast on the boat isn't so central to the photo

Nice pics:thumbs:

Here is my workflow (if necessary)for Jpegs:

Resize/Crop - always crop before doing anything else.
unsharp mask
Adjust exposure
saturation
white balance
Contrast
Levels
Reduce noise
