Fiddle on, you'll do good :-)

I edited previous so there's another one to try too.

Many ways you could go with this one depending on your desired focal point(s).

Cool thread! My take on the first one. I just looked at some more and it's very similar to ebookman's!

Thanks for doing my image, very interesting to see the various choices. You might have guessed it was exposed with the sky in mind. Pretty dense rainy skies with afternoon sun from the side. I like the natural look in Rustybugs image, and almass you made it very warm almost like an aged 70's postcard, as soft too :-). My complements to atlantel for the greens, really luscious look (slightly oversharpened buildings though in my mind).

Maybe a little more of the sidelight color for this one, and a little straightening.

@wfrank thanks for uploading that second image
sorry for not following my own 1280px guideline, but the image suffered badly from resizing to 1280px


i did some shifting in PS

It would be really cool to do this as a weekly task with separate threads.

Have not shoot anything with 21mm for long time, but this image made me want to do it... the other was rather boring with no far-near dynamics.



Apple Aperture settings


Processing: (little simplified but these would be steps if I would do all manually and skip some file handling relevant issues)
1. Import RAW to Apple Aperture and use same settings as in picture above
2. Export 16-bit TIFF in AdobeRGB
3. PhotoShop -> USM 15%, 40px (adds local contrast)
4. ImageMagick -> downsize to 1280px by command "convert input.tiff -define filter:filter=Lanczos -resize '1280x1280' output.tif"
5. PhotoShop -> change to ICC profile having gamma 1.0 (this is the key, don't do 250% with gamma 2.5 it won't work) and USM 250%, 0.2px and convert to sRGB and turn to 8-bit and save as TIFF
6. ImageMagick -> convert TIFF to JPG by command "convert input.tif -quality 92 output.jpg"
7. restore original EXIF information to image with exiftools command "exiftool -tagsFromFile original_from_aperture.tiff output.jpg"

In order to study what process steps 3 (local contrast) and 5 (minor sharpening of edges) open these 3 images to separate tabs and switch between them:
original
Added local contrast at full size
minor sharpening to edges at final size

This may sound very complicated and difficult. However by scripting I have made this very easy and fast for myself. Steps 1 and 2 took ~40 seconds. Step 3 and 5 are PhotoShop

" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">droplets
and takes ~10 seconds. Steps 4,6 and 7 I have automated (I have virtual machine running Linux, in which I have crontab processes monitoring directories and they almost immediately process images coming to the directories) as well taking few seconds each.

So whole process takes roughly 2 minutes when including thinking time involved in the process. Brain usage is needed at:
- step 1 (Apple Aperture settings: wb, recovery, blackpoint, vibrancy are the ones I usually use - this image was so underexposed that had to touch exposure, shadows and mid contrast)
- step 3 (to choose which of the local contrast droplets to select OR no local contrast at all - this is not needed for 90% of photos)
- step 5 (to choose which kind of minor edge sharpening is needed - this is my default but if I don't like results I have few other variants as well)

Just came across this thread and I think it's a wonderful idea. I had a great time going through the previous edits...we all have different vision...which is good, otherwise the world would be pretty boring.

Anyway, here is my contribution from a.RodriguezPix's RAW file.

http://shimonmor.com/TEMP/_DSC7210.jpg

Mostly some curves adjustments in ACR and PS and then applying a diffuse filter.

Going for a "gritty" look....

http://shimonmor.com/TEMP/DSC07753.jpg

Did a big crop to remove sky and get closer to the action. ACR adjustments to shadows, contrast, saturation, clarity and some levels work. Finished off with a little detail enhancement using NIK. BTW, I really like the energy in this shot. I feel like I'm there.
