White balance can extremely change the feel of your photo. I learned this the hard way as I forgot to put it on the correct setting when we were at the beach over Labor Day weekend. I had it on the Incandescent setting from earlier when I was experimenting with shots inside our home. I took these shots and it was too bright outside to notice the coloring on the screen. After we drove away is when I found out my beach shots were all BLUE!!!
Thankfully, we have the amazing technology through photo editing that I could change the white balance accordingly. So I am now a happy girl because my beach shots have a normal hue to them! Ha ha! :)
The benefits of shooting in RAW! Looks good! You're developing quite an eye!
ReplyDeleteThanks Dave! I'm so glad you told me about shooting in RAW....a lifesaver! (aka photo saver) :)
Deleteit's a really great composition, I love framing photos by shooting through leaves or around doorways etc.. gives such a neat look and sense of depth! What'd you edit this with?
ReplyDeleteThanks Christa! I LOVE trees!!! I edited it with View NX2, the Nikon editing program. It's free and pretty easy for me to work with right now. I tried the Lightroom for a free trial period, but it might be a while before we get that.
