Rebecca Price - Project 5


Camera raw seems to do a good job at getting the white balance adjusted to the right thing. I find using the temperature setting quickly fixes my exposure(white balance) mistakes. The sharpening and vignetting really can make an image pop (feels like cheating)

The preset is good for when I do a photo shoot and if all the pictures are all a little off I can use the preset to quickly fix them all.

I fell like the dodge burn and sponge tool are still a little hazy for me, mostly they can lighten or darken an area depending on what you have selected in the options bar.

I basically am still experimenting with the healing tools. The healing spot tool seems to work the best most of the time. Some times the brush works better. I am still figuring out what does what here.

Sometimes I couldn't see the changes taking place with the surface blur, it seemed so subtle. The most time consuming and challenging part continues to be making the web page with all the images coming up correctly as well as the links. I also have so many image files per project folder that I get lost between all the original and finals in 2 sizes an then psd's files as well. I need to work on my organization within the folders.

Keyboard shortcuts are control+ z, v, x, c, +, -, s, f5 for refresh f12 to view my page in a browser and alt+tab to switch between windows.
