this one takes my breath away.
and the other one made me dig up my The Cure "Wish" CD, the soundtrack of my highschool freshman year.
mind sharing what processing was done?

Glad to find someone who remembers that "B-side" track.

My processing is really quite straight forward. I usually aim to be quick in the processing.

My current workflow:

Photoshop CS6 workflow-
1. Open Bridge, compare both jpg and RAW to see the "potential" of how much I can pull from RAW.
2. Using the RAW (ORF) file, I determine how much details and exposure adjustments I need.
3. Highlights and Shadows adjustment, as well as vibrancy and saturation adjustments are all done in CS6.
4. Should there be more "pulling" I need, I usually start by using Nik software to see if it can be solved by simple use of plug in.
5. If that cannot be done, I will mask and work on layers, but that is only when I screw up on exposure when shooting, which is very rare.

There are many variations/tricks since Photoshop is so broad a topic. Maybe when I am back in Singapore the next time, I will organise an outing to share the way I work over a kopi session.

There are three main applications I use to work on my photos, Photoshop CS6, Nik Software or Apple Aperture. They pretty much give me what I need. Nik software suite is a great "quick and dirty" way to get your tweakings really quick, though the same can be done in Photoshop, though it will take a little more time.

That is so cute! I wonder do they ever get a "bum burn" for being in that position for too long while they slept... ha ha ha...

Thanks for sharing this. Made my day.

 

[scroogee]

thanks for the info.
my knowledge is limited to tone curve adjustments in Lightroom. so i was wondering if you masked and color shifted a portion of the frame or maybe the sky was just lit up that way.
either way, it's amazing.

Hehe maybe that is why their skin/hair is so soft. Thanks for the compliments.

I do masking quite a bit for landscape work, though these days the higher lattitude of the sensors are making life a whole lot easier. Broader dynamic range reduces the need for heavy post processing work. Most of the time, at least.

The image was not color shifted, though I added saturation before bleeding starts.
