Love this!
I agree, especially due to the discoloration on the rocks. Worth trying to remove them to see anyway!
I use Lightroom for everything generally speaking. But I have Photoshop as well
Thanks snerkler, will give this a go tonightI would try brushing in green tint in LR to try and neutralise the magenta, and maybe some desaturation as well. If that doesn't work you could try some delicate clone/stamping in PS. If that doesn't work you may have to try individual colour changing/brushing in PS, but I don't know how to do that. I wish they'd add that option in LR, I always found it really useful in aperture.
That colour brushing is easy to do in Afinity photo,I think you tried it didn’t you,the app I meanI would try brushing in green tint in LR to try and neutralise the magenta, and maybe some desaturation as well.

I've tried that many I forget which is which tbh. But I'm set on LR tbh, if I ever need to do something else that I can't in LR I'll pull my finger out and learn PS properlyThat colour brushing is easy to do in Afinity photo,I think you tried it didn’t you,the app I mean
question for all you prime M4/3 shooters out there.
Whilst I love my Olympus Pro F2.8 lens, I have been starting to wonder if using some primes might rekindle a little magic and creativity in my daily photography. With that in mind, for a general set of prime lenses for city walkabouts, general people shooting etc (although obviously not wildlife or sports), what focal lengths would you choose and which lenses please. I currently don't own many primes but I do have the following
Olympus 17mm F1.8
Panasonic Leica 25mm F1.4
Noticron 42.5mm F1.2
Would I need need something wider / longer. I know the Olympus trinity F1.2 primes (17mm, 25mm and 45mm) are the be and end all, but as I have those focal lengths already covered, I was thinking about maybe a 12mm and the 75mm ?
Thoughts please ?
It's a lovely camera/lens combo, hope you enjoy it. That's the reason I went with the EM1 tbhWell my EM5 MkII and 12-40 arrived a couple of days ago. It’s a lovely day so off out to try it out. It’s bloody small, I’ve had to put a grip on it.

Terrific shot, love the perspective, so unusual.

Hi Jake,OK, first time ever shooting on this setup, so be gentle.
I have to say, It is a real challenge to really think out the composition whilst battling the light which dies off VERY quickly. It is a very refreshing challenge at that.
Processing is a bit different between each shot as I was and am experimenting between settings and processing techniques for it.
Hope you like!
Sure Snerkler, please go aheadHi Jake,
Hope you don't mind, I know it says on your avatar not to edit your images but I had a go at seeing if I could get rid of the flare spot from the first pic. Whilst not perfect (only had the small file size to work with and only spent 5 mins on it) it does show that you should be able to remove it should you wish. Would you like me to post my effort?
As I said, not perfect but.....Sure Snerkler, please go ahead
I didn't get around to trying last night, very intrigued to what you came up with!
Wow! Really impressive
Impressive Toby, how did you do it?
That's flare from the sun.
Did you use a lens hood?
Sometimes it's unavoidable but some lenses flare more than others.
Impressive Toby, how did you do it?
I wish you could do that in LR as that would have made life so much easier, or if you can do that then please show me how As I mentioned previously it's one of the things that I wish LR would have, the ability to brush in individual colour changes, AFAIK there's only saturation, tint and the ability to use a colour brush to add colour. Being able to brush in individual colour changes using HSL panels would be great. I'm sure you can do this in PS, I just don't know how. I wish they'd incorporate PS's clone/stamp in LR too as I find LR's clone/heal a bit clumsy.Selected that area and removed purples and magenta from it in the HSL panel?

Thanks jakeblu. I used a brush changing the tint more to green, decreased the temp of the brush, decreased the saturation and added a bit of blue colour. I then tidied a couple of other bits up using clone/stamp in PS. It's quite a 'fudge' way of doing it, but without better PS skills it's the only way I can do it
Maybe you could join the vloggers and post a video on how to do it in PSIt's more PS I'm thinking aye, I do switch between the two, or used to a lot at least. LR needs to add HSL to that brush for sure.
This is already on YouTube. I've seen one a few years back.Maybe you could join the vloggers and post a video on how to do it in PS [emoji38]
It was a joke tbh as I believe he hates vloggersThis is already on YouTube. I've seen one a few years back.
I wish I lived by the sea again.Back off to the beach shortly
It was a joke tbh as I believe he hates vloggers
so do I it takes me 10 minutes to get there , I only used to have to walk to the top of the roadI wish I lived by the sea again.
I am about a 15min walk away. I make a point of going regularly because I will only be annoyed when the winter is here and I cannot make as much use of it!I wish I lived by the sea again.
Loving these long exposure picsI am about a 15min walk away. I make a point of going regularly because I will only be annoyed when the winter is here and I cannot make as much use of it!
Here are this evenings efforts. Same beach, different location.
I have another, but I am undecided on sharing it.
EDIT: Tempted to start a thread for more focused critique.
