  never really understood the power of image editing until now. While trying the camera on monotonous sky got very dull pictures and I was about to delete them. Then I thought to try out some image editing products to see the results. Played with

  • fill light
  • highlights
  • shadow
  • color temparature
  • saturation and
  • tint

here are the results – before and after -

it has made me lazy also. Now I just get the object into frame and shoot, whatever be the conditions, light direction etc. It may look like crap to a professional but most of the things which can be noticed by a beginer like me can be corrected by software now.
