My old Nikon D80, 70-300mm VR. Taken a while ago. I'm re-processing some old raw files with Capture NX-D (which I much prefer to NX-2). Plus I now know a bit more about what I'm doing.

Very nice Mr P, but could I suggest that you are erring on the side of oversharpening.

I had been thinking this, its trying to push my 'northern gritty' effect without going overboard.

I think I'll print a couple and get them on the wall of my office, and see how they appear printed, then adjust accordingly, but thanks for the heads up.

I think it's a little like the HDR craze of a few years ago - which I still can't bloody stand to any degree - once you see it, the production dominates the perception.

Judiciously and sympathetically applied - like Lefty's Pod life - individual results can be great, no doubt of that.

A bit like seasoning really - chucking chili in everything really doesn't make you a better cook. I'm not a great fan of 'heavy processing of everything' anyway...

Very good point - well made. It's a timely reminder to me not to get carried away. When the production becomes the point of the image, then it has gone too far. The production should be a means to an end. Something to allow the artist to express his / her vision. It shouldn't be the sole purpose of the image.

Agree with you 100%

River Adur in Sussex.
No processing. Fuji XT-1 with 35mm F2 and Velvia film simulation.
Colours from my Canon 1DSiii were more natural. So not sure about selling the Canon gear yet.
