DefJux -- That pizza shot is great! The lighting is really spot on and excellent contrast. That stringy cheese is making me hungry.

thanks!! much appreciated!

Thanks Blackvault. That was all done in post processing with Lightroom.

What I did was to increase the contrast, brightness and colour temp, fill and black clipping and lastly my clarity and sharpness amount sliders whilst decreasing Sharpness radius and dropping the Vibrance. I can't recall the exact figures that were used as I'm at work but I hope that gives you an idea of what was used to achieve this look.

Hi thanks for replying I'm suprised it was all done in LR, would have thought it was more of a Photoshop job, so kudos to you. I hope that you succeed with such an impressive image. Good Luck.

Hey EMS. I like the Brownies but technical points go to the cookies!

Blackvault. I'm quite illiterate when it comes to PS. I've been successful with tutorials on vector masks and the like but I honestly can't see the point in spending the hours required in altering a photo or preparing masks espescially with the prepared shots that food photography presents.

Kudos to the guys and dolls who can do it. I don't have the patience yet.

Oh, and thank you again.
