Spicoli's (bassmusic) photo thread.....

Are these straight out of camera?

 

Pretty much, I do not filter or anything like that. I might slightly adjust exposure, or color balance but I do not heavily edit anything.

Nikon D850.

 

Cool. I have always felt heavy editing was cheating. Nice looking photos.

 

Thank you.

Well yeah to some extent it can be, it can make anyone a photographer. I pretty much don't alter anything that could not be captured with a type of film that existed back in the early 2000s.

Being classicly trained, you don't rely on post to fix your photos. You go into taking the picture as if you have one chance to get a photo.

Velvia was used for landscapes, Kodak had some films that has increased color or saturation etc.

 

Agreed. I tried the whole Adobe thing, and it isn't for me. I use an old version of DXO photo lab, because I shoot Fuji and it handles Fuji sensors the best, to do minor adjustments. Lately though I have stopped shooting raw and shoot jpeg only. I enjoy spending time getting the composition correct, I don't enjoy editing.
