Photo retouche test

One sample photo portrait retouch I did on a studio photo I took way back. The first one is the JPEG exported directly from the RAW file without any corrections. The second photo is the cleaned one, the skin is more clear, some little corrections are made around the lips and the eyes are enhanced. As I was aiming more to a B/W result the color photo is left with few things to be corrected but hey.. at least you can see how the process goes.

The night we had lots of fun

Well to be more specific, the girls had fun… I was just standing there capturing the moment. Here are some shots from that night, I hope you like them.

O. in the dark

Here is one portrait of my dear brother I took while he was playing the guitar (yes he plays it too…) the poor boy was so surprised when I pulled my gold reflector in front of him and my camera snapped. But all in all it was a good shot.

Fields on fire…

Here a a few photos I took while touring Macedonia in February this year. We visited a small village named Zrnovce located near Kocani. I had the luck of taking a few photos of the burning rice fields there.

Obviously this is a common thing there as people intend to burn the fields so that the ash can make the land more fertile.
