Does it NEED to be formal portraiture, or any photo that you can show the original and what you did to retouch? I have a 30D, so you'd have to have pretty much the latest Adobe RAW update (I believe either 3.5 or 3.6 - only works in CS2 or later) to open the file. I sure you already knew that - just thought I'd mention it.Mike I love you, Shannon and Jim. POPS 9708 , SCR 14706 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
grue 1 #5 January 17, 2007 The latter is fine, basically just showing what I can do. I've got CS2 and the CS3 beta both installed on my editing machine, so I can definitely handle the photo... thanks!cavete terrae. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mnealtx 0 #6 January 17, 2007 I'll see what I can come up with - I'm pretty sure I've got some local landscape shots that I can send (no guarantee on photo quality, tho!!) - pretty much everything else is either boogie stuff or events that there's no way I can get releases for. I'll look and see what I've got on the HD tonight after work.Mike I love you, Shannon and Jim. POPS 9708 , SCR 14706 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mnealtx 0 #10 January 17, 2007 Definitely need to turn down the opacity on the corrections... it looks good, but a bit TOO smoothed...
