This is a very important image, I was quite pleased with it and was mortified when Sharron (remember I told you she comes into the story again) who is now a semi-professional photographer (and GOOD, check out Untamednewyork and sharronshoots on instagram) came back with a suggestion as to how to improve it. But I had deleted the raw file as I normally did after a quick edit and so I couldn’t make the change! From this point on I really thought about my images and started to produce (take and process) reasonable photographs by design rather than putting myself in good places and relying on luck! I will take abuse from anyone who knows my photography at this point
A case in point, this was an unedited RAW image until I started looking for images for this presentation – the next image was the one I was looking for but I just had a “play” with this one and rather liked the result
Being on the west coast means that sunsets over the sea are a good subject (as this is Puget Sound you have the benefit of land out to the west as well)
