Not bad at all Kevin.

I don't normally like smoking pics, but this is an exception.

Shame about the forehead; was it shot RAW, is there anything you can do about it in PP?

Nice "self portrait" in the glasses frame

Umm yah I think when i took this i envisionsed a more Amber ish hue too the whole image and not so bright...I ll maybe work on it and repost...you guys can do the same if you wish.


Colin...I cant see myself in the frames ?

PS I think this might have been a good opportunity too try out the Highlight tone priority thingyma jiggy...

I tried to reduce exsposure and brighntess int he forhead but there just isnt anything there to reduce too

[Dave Humphries]

If using ACR, did you try wanging Recovery right over to the right?

I know the problem, I have so many pics of blown swans, they need EC -1 at least and they always fly by when I have +1 set (and no time to change)

I tried using Lightroom and the little brush thing to just recover the forhead...
when i did underexspose all that was recovered was grey....lol
and unbrightness was just white i think,,,

no data there i guess..
