Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Photoshop is you're best friend ;D

check out these online video tutorials, I use them as my work is too cheap to send me on a course :|

I might have to give it a go to correct exposure a bit here and there. The idea of photoshopping my pictures isn't really enthusing me though :urff:

But no doubt it'll be better than the crap software that came with my scanner (ArcSoft PhotoStudio or so).

Otherwise, I'll just take a deep breath and blow it out over the film ;D

Check the tutorials in the link above for Photoshop Lightroom, it's a program more suited to photographers in that it's a kind of digital darkroom. I'd never heard of this package before I got a mailshot from Adobe yesterday, so I checked it out to see what the differences between it and Photoshop CS were via a couple of tutorials. It looks just the thing for you and any other 'digital' photographers out there.

and as for photoshop, look at it as more of a digital darkroom rather than photoediting.. you don't have to edit that much but it is very useful to be able to alter colour casts, brightness/contrast etc etc..

That's an interesting way to look at it. I'll do my best to adopt it :D

I have something like the one you posted, though mine comes from the cellar where all my cameras come from so the air is rather smelly. Best get a new one :lol:

And thanks James for pointing out Lightroom, I'll investigate ;D

I prefer the looks of the other one :innocent: (mine looks like that though)

Nearly forgot to upload a photo ;D

(That new lens I bought is a bit too slow for my liking, most of the time f/22 is the only aperture you can use. And I only figured out after I finished my roll :urff: Underexposed the lot, yay!)

Indeed you are correct there JB ... Although I like the look of both these applications, as I'm too poor to update from PS6, and already have other software for RAW stuff, I'll stick with what I've got for the time being (including the Linux stuff too which you abhor of course?!), but thanks for that clicky - interesting!

Nice one! Though if you're photo shopping I'd have gone more black, personally.

I've just been busy (all afternoon :evil: My own fault for not wanting to spend money on digitizing anymore :lol:) scanning a roll of Fuji Velvia 50 (!), uploading will be for later tonight or tomorrow even. One of my favourite rolls to date, so beware :D

Yup, it is Barbican and one of the few fricking places that I can find in London with teh tube that even appears to be remotely metropolitan.. Inspired by a few US subway/cityscape photos by people whose names I forget (as per usual)..
