A question

Augie

In this photo it is an opened white tulip. No matter how I process I just cant seem to get it right. This was the original.


I used 2 hand held flashes, one top and one side.
How could I have improved?

I tried different ISO settings on both the flash and camera with different combinations.

What exactly don't you feel you are getting right? The colour cast? It looks a little blue. You could try adjusting the white balance to make it a little warmer. Maybe you already tried that?...

opened in RAW 4.1

temperature +86 (less blue)
exposure -0,20
blacks 23
clarity 90
vibrance +32

Exactly what I was looking for.

I need better editing software :cry

Thanks

RAW 4.3 is a free plug in for CS3 and elements 4/5 so if you have this program you can download it at

i use it mostly for standard processing of RAW files, finetuning in Photoshop

hope it helps
