Title: Taking pictures and editing them - quick and easy tutorial
Post by: Anatoli on July 09, 2011, 01:42:35 PM

I've put together a tutorial showing how you can get the most out of your picture without fancy light tents, daylight bulbs or any of that.

I simply use a digital camera, a blank white paper for background, reading lamp and AcdSee 2 pro for quick editing.

The tutorial shows examples of "before/after" editing a picture taken under different circumstances. Such as using no additional light beside daylight coming in from the window, putting the lamp too close to the model and having perfect light conditions.

Going from a picture taken with good light but no editing

To a picture taken with good light and simple auto correction of colors and contrast in one click of the mouse button.
