00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,750
now we're going to look at post
processing your images when I check my
2
00:00:03,750 --> 00:00:07,710
image on the back of the viewfinder it
tends to look a little dull and so how
3
00:00:07,710 --> 00:00:11,290
do we make it so that goes pop and well
and looks more interesting that's going
4
00:00:11,290 --> 00:00:15,309
to take a look at next so you can use
any software that you like I like to use
5
00:00:15,309 --> 00:00:20,529
Lightroom you can also use Adobe Camera
Raw through the bridge or other software
6
00:00:20,529 --> 00:00:25,189
programs that come with your camera and
here let's take a look at that when I am
7
00:00:25,189 --> 00:00:30,429
in the camera and photographing this is
how it came out of in-camera the basic
8
00:00:30,429 --> 00:00:34,239
settings with no adjustments whatsoever
you could see that this guy is a little
9
00:00:34,239 --> 00:00:38,829
brown and blue and does it have light
blue hue to it so the first thing I do
10
00:00:38,829 --> 00:00:42,420
is to bring down the color temperature
so I go over here to the color
11
00:00:42,420 --> 00:00:47,260
temperature to bring that down a little
bit to make it blew and the 10th the
12
00:00:47,260 --> 00:00:52,670
magenta looks pretty good here it . 2+2
and I brought the color temperature down
13
00:00:52,670 --> 00:00:56,460
to 3,300 but you can play around with
that move that back and forth to see
14
00:00:56,460 --> 00:01:01,620
something that you like some people like
it a little bit more warm down so if I
15
00:01:01,620 --> 00:01:05,640
make it more war until then I might also
move the color temperature slider backup
16
00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:10,140
or still I see something that I like so
that is not to greed and not to magenta
17
00:01:10,140 --> 00:01:14,180
and kinda in between somewhere and that
gives it kind of a more warm toned up to
18
00:01:14,180 --> 00:01:17,640
it so many things that you can do
another thing I'd like to do is to
19
00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:23,299
increase the contrast so bring that up a
little bit as well as the white that'll
20
00:01:23,299 --> 00:01:27,100
make the stars pop when you bring up the
whites they really bring out the stars
21
00:01:27,100 --> 00:01:31,869
as well as the clarity I don't know what
it does with clarity but look at that
22
00:01:31,869 --> 00:01:36,280
the stars really just pop and become
much more vivid whatever you bring up
23
00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:41,430
the clarity so I bring that up quite a
bit here I brought it up to 34 to bring
24
00:01:41,430 --> 00:01:46,579
up the vibrant so that's gonna saturate
the colors however not over saturate
25
00:01:46,579 --> 00:01:50,360
them so it's really nice to bring up
that one can I bring up the saturation
26
00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:53,899
for those yellows in this case we do
have some yellows and warm tones in it
27
00:01:53,899 --> 00:01:58,590
so bring that up a couple of points to
another thing I like to do is to change
28
00:01:58,590 --> 00:02:03,540
the noise so the noise here is really
evident that if we bring this up to a
29
00:02:03,540 --> 00:02:06,820
hundred percent view that we could see
that it is
30
00:02:06,820 --> 00:02:11,910
is very strong and that there's a lot of
noise going on here so to do that I'm
31
00:02:11,910 --> 00:02:17,070
going to click on the detail tab and
then over here which is limited to bring
32
00:02:17,070 --> 00:02:20,709
that up I generally four-color noise
where it is unless you see lots of like
33
00:02:20,709 --> 00:02:25,020
red and green speckled said it then I'm
gonna be that they're so bringing that
34
00:02:25,020 --> 00:02:30,140
up to about 45 and now we could see that
that looks much better than it did
35
00:02:30,140 --> 00:02:36,400
before and one other thing is under the
lens correction tab we want to make sure
36
00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:42,480
that we have the chromatic aberration
remove so I would just click this box
37
00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:47,040
right here under color and remove
chromatic aberration so that is going to
38
00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:50,550
help take out some of those colored
halos that we see so the chromatic
39
00:02:50,550 --> 00:02:54,260
aberration when the lens focuses it
focuses the colors a different focal
40
00:02:54,260 --> 00:02:57,840
length so the blue and the red channels
are going to focus on a different focal
41
00:02:57,840 --> 00:03:02,940
length and this will help reduce that so
that you don't see that I am blue halo
42
00:03:02,940 --> 00:03:07,110
around the stars are that reddish
magenta halo around the stars look much
43
00:03:07,110 --> 00:03:10,750
better so be sure to click that and
those are the main things I do and must
44
00:03:10,750 --> 00:03:15,670
take a look at the final product ang
here we go I will bring this off 100
45
00:03:15,670 --> 00:03:21,750
percent to 15 view and now we've gone
from something rather dole to something
46
00:03:21,750 --> 00:03:26,400
much more interesting so from that to
that and that we were able to make our
47
00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:31,870
stars cobalt blue vibrant contrasting
and just gorgeous and maybe you want to
48
00:03:31,870 --> 00:03:35,480
do some final shopping in the final
output when you do your printing as well
49
00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:39,390
so this is post-processing it's just so
exciting what you can do you go play
50
00:03:39,390 --> 00:03:42,910
around with it change the color
temperature change the contrast and make
51
00:03:42,910 --> 00:03:46,799
it just go well and make it beautiful I
mean this is how you make it really
52
00:03:46,799 --> 00:03:51,790
stand out from other peoples images and
have it look absolutely gorgeous so play
53
00:03:51,790 --> 00:03:54,820
around have fun and make some beautiful
images
