So in the interests of transparency and producing outstanding images from digital photographs that might otherwise have been disregarded to the recycle bin, Inner Vision Photography will now be experimenting with post production image remastering (in other words playing around with Photoshop or Lightroom when circumstances deem necessary).
Below is an example of one of my first attempts to enhance a photograph taken on Sussex South Downs with the Nikon CoolPix P510
. The "Baby Nikon" as it became affectionately known, has a really high magnification zoom lens and is extremely versatile in all kinds of lighting conditions, most notably low light.  |

The image below was enhanced by increasing the contrast and turning up the hue by a small amount. I brought out the colours in the clouds by selecting an area above the field and adjusting that separately. If you zoom in on the image you can see where I had to smooth the edge of the field which was done with a healing brush tool / eraser and by feathering the edge of the selected area. This made the overall photo look more colourful and dramatic. If I wanted to make it look professional I would probably select the area above the horizon to work with and spend more time on it, but for a quick job I am quite pleased with the result.
