Got bored at home so I decided to take a picture of somethin. Still new to photography I just picked up my 50d last month



How would you guys edit this? Saved it as a RAW so all is not lost.






My studio

 

Post the raw, what vision do you have for the final shot? You need a higher angle the white behind the knife which I presume is a glass reflection from the cabinet in the background needs to go bye bye. Also if you look the white cutting board does not fill in for a background. try finding something that gives you a solid 360 degree background and shoot it again. find yourself some fill light. All this can be fixed in PP, but first lesson is get as much correct in camera before shooting the shot. Hope these lil tidbits help you.

 

The vision was supposed to be kinda grim its the end of the watermelon. I kinda liked the background, maybe raise the ap a bit to make it a lil more focused, I think I blurred it too much. Drop the shutter speed a few notches. Do you think I should center the melon more on the cutting board so it stretches the full length of the shot?

Still got all the pieces (as long as my sister doesn't eat the watermelon) so I can retake the photo.

 

^ it's your vision shoot it as you wish

 

I was bored....just a quick edit:

 

underexposed

 

some of these comments crack me up!

 

this photo seems slightly super-hydratically-exposed. I would suggest flipping the camera upside down for the shot, and the using the latest version of PS to flip it back around. If you use an out-dated version, the flip will pixelate the multicorporises in the foreground and there's a good chance you will ruin your lens caps.

 

 

I thought this only works when there is a new moon.
