Ring Of Kerry

Working in Ballinskelligs for a few days and took these. Was lashing and very misty down there so the light was terrible. Thats my excuse anyway

I've destroyed a few lots recently with my over enthusiasm with LightRoom so these are essentially untouched. Comments appreciated.

Would you consider coverting the 3rd & 4th to B&W?

Huge dust spots in the middle of the last 2 images.

Love the first one - the scale or sense of perspective is great.

I know. See my post in Sensor Cleaning!

B&W versions. Worse or better?

Mr Dave C

1, I think would be better without the person in it the idea is good small rocks leading to big rocks.

2, Is creative very cool

3, Centering the shot abit more to the right might make a better shot

4, Love the shot very nice would make a good postcard for the area.

I liked the last one, hope you dont mind i gave it a re-spin
(just light room, some lens correction and some brightness, contrast and blacks)

How did you do that? I'm really interested to know how to touch photos up like this.

Get yourself LightRoom or Photoshop.

Not at all. Looks nice. I think I'd prefer a little less vignetting though.

I think the B&W version of the castle is nice.
Also like what Solyad has done.

easily adjusted with lens correction slider - dont have lightroom here at work but ill try again tonight... can send you the lightroom preset too if you want - nothing fancy - just something i use to vignette the edges and brighten the middle (you can get a trial of lightroom 1 or 2 beta 2

It takes the flat look of some images as in the original, the light is flat across the image which can make it dull - i found that a lot with my photos

I use that preset to give a contrast in light across the image which makes it seem a bit more alive

I'd like that preset if you can send it to me. Thanks. I have LR 1.4. I'll pm my contact details.
