Taking Better Photos Part Two
Blog reader Kristine asked a great question. Do I use Photoshop on my photos or are the ones put on my blog SOOC (straight out of camera)? Every photo you see on this blog and my family blog are processed in Photoshop for one simple reason: I shoot in RAW and cannot upload them until they are converted to jpeg. In addition, if I don't resize the photos they take 10-15 minutes to upload. I obviously don't have time for that. So, the short answer is, every photo you see is at least converted to jpeg, and resized and sharpened for the web. But what she was really asking was, what do my photos look SOOC? So here's the answer.
