Underwater Photography Colour Correction

admin — Mon, 07 Mar 2011 19:52:17 +0000

In December 2009, We took a trip to Sharm el Sheikh.

We borrowed a fairly cheap Fuji underwater camera from my parents, and proceeded to snap away at the main reason anyone goes to Sharm. We were fairly pleased with the results when we got back home, but today I found a colour correction tutorial for underwater photography. A few steps later, a Photoshop action created, and a set of photos suddenly take on a whole new life.

IR Photography

That’s infra-red photography to anyone who’s never seen it. I had a quick go at this a couple of years ago, but was never really pleased with the results. Today though, I found a really good tutorial on the post-processing of an IR image.

This was just a little experiment in the garden, I plan to go out and take some more when the weather’s good.

I’ve been using Google Picasa for a while now. It’s a very nice package that views all sorts of formats of pictures, and can improve most photos (even those you thought were perfect) with just a couple of clicks.

Anyway, I started looking a while back for a nice bit of web-gallery software, and played with a couple, but as per usual, Google offers one of the best.
