Hi Everyone,
It's my first post here. I'm from Liverpool, UK. I'm hoping to get some good advice as I'm a total newbie when it comes to photography.
We were the official hairstylists at a fashion show this last bank holiday weekend, so my partner went out and bought a Sony A380 to try and get some decent size shots (our normal camera is only an Olympus 5 mega-pixel point and click :| ).
Coming from a 10 year long webdesign background, I have access to the likes of Photoshop, but after culling over 800 of my shots and being left with 200 "possibles" I've now come to a dead end.
Half the shots were done inside a cathedral, and the other half were done inside a bombed out church (roof missing, plenty of daylight).
I want to enhance the images we've got remaining before photoshopping them, so I've downloaded the Beta of lightroom 3, but I really don't know if the images are under/over-exposed, or do need sharpening, tone correcting etc.
Seeing as the images were all taken from the same 3 viewpoints with constant light conditions, could you guys have a look at each view and maybe give me some pointers or tips for some lightroom settings to enhance the pictures overall?
This would be a massive help.
Thanks,
Chris.
