I really hate to post a link but I can't resize enough to make the size requirements on these shots but tell me what you think. Shot with a XTi and 24-105L. I absolutely love that lens now! Minor curves adjustment, custom white balance, some exposure adjustments and USM, mild boost in saturation. I think that's all I did to them:D

What's not to like, it's a pool party, not a work of art.

What do you use for post processing? Doesn't look like ACR 4.1

By the way, I never said it was a 'work of art'.

These are pretty good, but why are you not using your flash? A little fill on these would be good. Let me know if you need some tips. ;) I can come down and show you if you want (what? stop calling me smart a$$, I can hear you :p ).

Medic85- you say that they were not works of art.

I posted one of my favorite images on another site and asked for C&C. The very first responder said, "What is your picture trying to say" I pleasently questioned her heredity and pointed out that it wasn't saying a thing, but it was pleasing to me and that was all that mattered.

My point is that they are works of art.

I never thought about bringing it out there. I'm still not too sure about using the fill flash either. I'll take you up on the offer and I never once called you a smart a$$;), or thought it:lol:
