    RAW Cows II

    Here is another one from the D30 RAW files. The last time I coverted this all I had was the Canon RAW utility. It was pathetic. I used CS for this.

    Nice! You might want to brighten it a bit more and open the shadows a bit? The file may look a bit noisy in the shadows if you print after opening the shadows though?

    Thanks Paul!

    I have no idea, I have just started this processing stuff. I have a lot to learn yet.

    Re: RAW Cows II

    I have CSII and here is a quick edit to show you what I mean

    +.67 exposure
    open shadows 10%
    noise ninja (profiled your image) to reduce noise and sharpen a wee bit

    remember... this is a quick edit of a JPEG... RAW would be way better

    I am maybe 1 step infront of you when it comes to editing, so bear with my crude attempt ;)

    I like both your cow shots, Almo. I will be of no help at all as far as editing, but as IS, I like the textures...the horns, snout and even the little rolls on the body are really great. Also the expression is terrific on this one.
