*Official* Post Your Pictures Thread

I only really use Photoshop for things like panoramas now. Most of my editing is done in Lightroom now.
 
I'm talking about editing though, Lightroom and CameraRAW is still processing the image.
Again for me I mostly shoot sports or cars, which I tend to take hundreds of photos. If I went out to a location, and had to narrow it down to 1-3 photos and make those photos spectacular, I'd probably do some of that editing.
 
I use lightroom to adjust Colors, Exposure, crop, etc. Then I use photoshop to sharpen, noise reduction, remove objects, add lens flare, add text, add stuff to photos, I also use the liquify tool sometimes.

For me then:

Processing - Lightroom

Editing (panoramas and stuff like that) - Photoshop

HDR - Photomatix Pro

The vast majority of my photos these days are just processed in Lightroom and then exported as JPEGs. Most never see Photoshop editing or HDR these days.

A lot of my photos from April/May time were HDR because I had just 'discovered' it but I soon stopped doing HDR regularly.
 
Does anybody else actually use Photoshop for editing their photographs, ie. removing distracting objects, moving objects within the scene for better composition etc?

Yeah, I usually try to remove distracting elements when possible. And I pretty much use Photoshop for all picture adjustments.
 
Taken with my Nokia Lumia 710 and post processed in Lightroom. :)

Awesome! Android's are going to start having RAW support, so soon you can save images in RAW format :)

Except I won't be able to since I own a Windows Phone...

But, I signed up at school today to do Microsoft Qualifications and all the stuff I need works perfectly with Windows Phone, and since I have a D-SLR for photography. ;)
 


And the old Beto Junction it appears whoever owns it did not like me taking pictures there last time. They cleaned up the whole place and posted no trespassing signs all over. Which kinda upsets me. Because this is my home town, and if people there now get that uptight about someone taking pictures of what was the cornerstone of the town in the early 1900s then they need to give the property to someone who will properly preserve it in the first place.

First time I've properly used the camera in a few weeks, here are some shots of the Christmas lights in Norwich.

By the way Jason, loving those city shots, I love European architecture.

Dean, your photos have come on in leaps and bounds! You always manage to capture really natural looking moments, nothing ever looks forced or contrived. You ever considered doing Event/Wedding photography?

Here's some product photography from recent -

Thanks Danny! Yeah I'm hoping to eventually get hired to do events or for an advertising company. I've also thought about doing weddings but I don't have the lighting gear for it right now. At the moment I am just trying to get as much experience as I can and build my portfolio. While getting my name out there and making contacts and building a resume.
