Looks good to me Eric

Thanks....no processing apart from crop on iPad. So when I power up PC and CC I will have a go at noise and sharpening etc

As Robert knows ( and derides me because of it) I'm a lazy b ....preferring to work on iPad in an armchair. :wink;

Anyway....I've actually worked a way of doing selective noise reduction in Snapseed...despite them not having that option in their menu. Don't suppose anyone's interested in HOW, as few use such a primitive editing app., but here's a before .....

It's the end result that counts ,not what equipment etc that you used to get there , interesting if only done on a i.pad though . Are they from raw files or j.pegs Eric

I can't equate using an iPad to edit large resolution photographs as being lazy, crude or imprecise!

It must take the patience of Jobe to manipulate and edit, even to just crop, let alone anything more adventurous on an iPad.

I find dual 28 inch screens and my MacPro, barely adequate at times.

This is my workstation where I spend much of my day if not engaged in other activities like working at my lathe or welding up some contraption or other.

Please excuse the dust! Recent building works are still lingering...

Eric,
Can you detail what you did to those two images.
Is it just mask background and reduce noise.Subject area sharpen.
Is it that simple?

JPEGs because iPads won't handle nef files ...at the moment (see * below)

But that's not an issue as I am not printing exhibition print....they are only being viewed on screens...so jpegs are good enough.

I spent 25+years running my photography and design company, much of the time sat in front of large screens in an office similar to Roberts setup, with controlled ambient lighting to get best editing quality out of the photographs and artwork designs. It ruined my eyes for one thing!.

But in recent years publishers and printers have drifted into digital printing presses. Cheaper, quicker, more flexible, easier to operate ....but inferior in quality to traditional litho printing, the quality of printing dropped making the lengths I was going to in finessing, pointless.

I confess I adopted an "it will do" attitude like most of the industry. You only have to go into most people houses and look at their TV set up to realise they don't appreciate true colour balance, contrast and dynamic tonal range....so who are we trying to please with our ott efforts?

But I still know some diehard agencies insisting on large format digital files... when their clients only want websites.
o.O


In truth I am holding out until next year when Adobe are releasing a full Photoshop CC version for the new iPad Pro. (* hopefully with Adobe camera raw included.)
With a 1TB onboard hard drive, much improved performance, coupled with the Apple pen for precise direct on screen editing and my WiFi external hard drive storage ......I will be able to sit in an armchair and watch the garden birds while editing.

:thumbs:
