When posting one of my pictures, I usually say that some post-processing was done. This is nothing but very classical stuff, that I believe are common to most photographers.
However I’ve been advised to give a glimpse of what those modifications were. And that’s why this post will explain and illustrate, for a very simple case, how, starting with a picture coming out of my camera, I get one that suits me enough to post it here.
The picture I’ll use as an example is the following:
Island and wake in front of Saint-Malo
Long story short, the post process I usually do, and that I will show here have basically two purposes:
- improve color and contrast
- re-frame the picture
