Last year i became interested in landscape photography and it was a whole new challenge of photography to me, after previously just shooting wildlife. Mainly birds. I am getting more confident with my settings exposure and composition etc. Although i know i have a long way to go before i can achieve the kind of images that i am aiming for. I research places and compositions also take the weather conditions and any information i can get on the area i will be visiting and ocasionally everything works out fine. I mainly try to get out for a sunrise shoot and mostly in the lake district.
After composing and taking the shot checking histogram etc all looks good in the screen and im happy.
So i get home and on the pc to process the image (i always shoot in raw ) This is where i begin to struggle . As i am working with an old version of photoshop CS5 . As this is just a hobby and i am a pensioner i am not able to pay out a lot of money on up to date programmes ,so im stuck with CS5. Sorry for this being long winded. Anyway im strugling with my editing After editing, my images always seem to look flat and boring .I am a slow learner and not technical minded and im getting slowly despondent with image editing. Due to this i find that i am deleting images that seem to have good potential and am getting reluctant to process them due to the end result. Any advise on how to process and get end results that would be pleasing. Thanks.
