I just learned some really basic stuff to shoot in manual mode this past week. Eta- The image I posted a few posts up, I downloaded from my Facebook page, then loaded it on the arf server. |

The bigger they are and more dpi (dots per inch in print terms) the easier it is for someone to snag your image. So in my case 72dpi means they're kinda stuck without being able to do much. |

I'll pop it back in. Didn't think about using the tankers as a grey card.
And that's 25 on dehaze already, I don't want to push it too hard, but I think I have a mask for just the mountains. To keep this a photo thread though, I give you the inside of DOOM. Yes, that's it's callsign. Attached File |
