Still enjoying my little EOS M...
and I know I got a bit carried away but this was my first proper play with Lightroom which has changed my image significantly.

Really, really like that. I reckon it would work brilliantly as a pure monochromatic or split toned bw print too.and I know I got a bit carried away but this was my first proper play with Lightroom which has changed my image significantly.

Epic... did you use light room post? LastLight said:
Some other equally wonderful shots from the session(?) on your Flickr stream!
Thank you very much for the kind comments. It was a while ago now but I was on the beach waiting for it to get dark to have a fire. Snapping away on the phone while the sun set and and I think I just got very lucky they turned out well.Didn't have the camera on me so another phone entry here;

For my taste, I'd look at lowering highlights and boosting shadows a touch, then a dose of vibrance and a bit of clarity.
Just one opinion mind.
No, I agree. Having looked at it on screens other than my work one (where I processed it and wouldn't usually). Made some tweeks this morning...Just one opinion mind.
I'm happier with this one Doesn't look as flat.
Looks great by the way.
PP is personal - everyone has their own taste.
My view is that the sky in the original looks the most natural (think both DD's and the recut are over-saturated*), but I like DD's foreground better.
* I try to reduce the brightness on blue alongside extra saturation if I'm giving sky more 'punch'...but as DD is a better 'tog than me I wouldn't take my opinion as worth much more than just that - some bloke's opinion...

Here's one more I took. Just upped the saturation a little and increased the temp a touch on white balance. It looks better than the original except the sky seems a bit over-exposed now. How could I go about sorting the sky out, without effecting the rest of the image?
Many thanks!
I really should make a thread on help, rather than posting here.

The sky is the only area that is predominantly light coloured, so lowering the highlights (white/light colours) should work. It's often one of the first things I do with sky shots as it gives more definition to clouds which become less hazy.Many thanks!

The alternative - not necessary on this image, but possibly applicable for others where you have highlights in the foreground that you don't want touching - would be to use a graduated filter (a digital equivalent of a physical grad.) Lightroom makes that sort of thing really easy.
