Looks great - do you have a link to the tutorial?

My procedure is now - put sharpening to 50 to start, alt-slide the masking until the sky/other large flat surfaces are unsharpened, alt-slide the detail from low to high until it shows sharp but not exaggerated, and zoom in on the smallest detail I want to see sharpened and alt-slide the detail slider until it's just about sharp. Then I go back to the sharpening strength and alt-slide it until it looks just sharp enough.

@Kevin Allan, that is a fantastic photograph. Should be rather pleased with that!

A couple from a recent stint to Cornwall. Shot on Astia 100F and Across respectively, and both on the Ebony LF camera. Hope you like :) (As usual, please click the images for sharper versions!)

This is such a "relaxing" scene to view.....sort of image to have on wall....Brilliant!

Thanks, that sounds about the same as my process.
 
He's a Bonnie looking fella is Clyde. (See what I did there?)
 
I seem to be spamming this thread a little at the moment... frankly it's a bit of a novelty for me to actually have new photographs to show! Anyway, here's another one from Trebarwith Strand, but from a different perspective this time :) thoughts welcome as always. [click image for sharper version!]

That's very nice Woodsy and really does need to be seen in its sharper version.
 
Not sure how to judge this one Keith...would it be patterns? modern art? or whatever

As Nick said, it really does need to be seen large; the default view comes across as very dark on my (uncalibrated) screen, whereas the larger version does have a much nicer glow. I like the colours (could maybe wish it were a tiny bit brighter?), the focus works all the way through (can't use the s-word now!), and the shutter speed is perfect to show movement without either frozen water or unnatural milk! (What was the speed?) Very nice.

I really like it, very restful and calming, though I'm not entirely sure about the very top fraction. Otherwise, great spot!

Thanks! You're right about the top fraction, I'll crop it at the platform edge I think.

It's tricky because the repetition of the darker squares does add something, and the closer you get to the actual edge the more the slight angle might irritate the eye. Would the top edge of the second platform work better?
 
the top is sloping right, the bottom sloping left! i quite like it though :)

The horizontals in this are messing with my head, it's not that I don't like it but I want it straighter :confused:

Haha! I'm not sure how much of it is foreshortening and how much of it is real. I think I made it worse by not quite being perpendicular to the platform. The rail in the middle is straight though!
 
Roberts, Roberts.... quickly now man, bring the straighteners.
 
Many thanks for the comments chaps :)

The shutter speed I'm not sure on to be honest Chris, at a guess, it might have been around 1/4 or 1/2 a second; the light was starting to fade by this point. The mechanically timed shutter speed I'm limited to is 1s, so it would not have been longer than this. I agree also, it could be a little brighter. Even on my (calibrated a long time ago) monitor, it's a little dark. I'll see about making it a smidge brighter when I next get a minute. Thanks again for the comments and feedback!

Hi Keith,
Give this a try!

Open in Photoshop,
1) Then go to the select menu - then select all.
2) Go to the edit menu - cut then paste, this will create a new layer of your image (select that layer)
3) Go to the image menu - transform and use perspective then distort to fine tune.
4) Go to layer menu - flatten image & then save.
5) I think this looks a bit bettero_O

Your now going to tell me now you don't have Photoshop aren't you:meh: :indifferent:

That's better, I feel slightly more at ease now :)
 
It's a bit good is that Woodsy lad, very atmospheric.

Just to bring the bar down to a more easily reachable level, here's one from the l'al ratty in Eskdale, a small gauge railway which runs up the valley from Ravenglass.

I am, yes :P The good news, though, is that Lightroom's manual perspective correction tools seem to have worked, cheers! (I'd tried the auto mode, but it didn't really help)
 
I was out with my 1969 Rolleiflex 3.5F Planar as it was sunny -- I took some 'Family Snaps' then this bloke came into the pond near our Town Center with his horse and I got him 1/125th at f5.6 on 2004 outdated Ilford Pan F film - I rated it at 25 ASA and processed in FX15 formula but it was over-developed and very contrasty -- luckily I had a box of Ilfobrom Glossy S/W Grade 1 and printed it on that with the D72 print dev laced with some drops of 1% Benzotriazole as it was at least 30 years old -- and it came out well and I scanned the print with my Mustek 1200 UB flatbed + PhotoShop 7 .

Beautiful photograph Pentaxpete but you completely lost me when it came to your development process! Lol
