love it Omar, the framing is great

Thanks man it took soooooo many shots to get this. Its so tough and initiating the timing with your shutter speed and the tennis players is tough to nail consistently.

.PNG is a better format for watermarks as this will preserve any transparency...

Thanks Jay! This is what I meant, PNG, not DNG.

I agree with this. I also created my watermark on a regular file size just to make sure that it would look good on those images. Usually from that point on auto resizing and opacity settings in LR3 take care of everything else. It also places the watermark right where i want it. Lower right hand corner. I noticed yours is in the middle. You should edit the watemark in LR3 to ensure its apearing where you want. Let me know if you have any questions. These edits i make them in the export portion. Also, when exporting to flickr from LR3 you have to make the change there as well.

I'll give it a try tonight at home and do some tests. We'll see how I fare, but I guess the best way to learn is to make a few mistakes to begin with, lol. Thanks for the tips Omar!

to elaborate some more, my action was something on the lines of importing another image placing it in the corner, set edge highlight and save.

heres what the old watermark looked like

and here was the issue I had with portrait image, ignore that bad pic!!

Thanks for the input, KC!

Here are some more shots i took with the 70-200 2.8 IS II. This time at the US Open. Man was this hard to shoot! Sun was at noon high so everything was almost washed out. Most courts lacked any shade which would have helped out a lot. But it was fun non the less trying to get these shots.

Nice shots, Omar! By the way is this Ana Ivanovic?

you should try hockey, getting the puck in the shot can be just as hard

It's surprising how many "reality" shows are scripted, lol! Well, maybe not surprising. But it's dumb to call it reality anyway.

Ohhh i know the pain. I tried shooting at the devils flyers playoff game i went to this past post season. UNPREDICTABLE!!!

Just a simple reminder that NAPP has four tutorials ans a watermark generator available to its members, as well as hundreds of other tutorials...

Hey guys,Does anyone have tips for creating a watermark for photos? I'm thinking the likes of Adrian's and Omar's. I will most likely create a DNG with transparent background in PS, and use it with the LR watermark feature when exporting. But I'm clueless as to anything else, such as what size to create the watermark, for example, so that it will look consistant and sharp and clear regardless of the final photo size (e.g. might vary due to cropping?). Any tips would be welcome.

Thanks!

I like documentary type "reality" shows like Mythbusters and other shows on Discovery Channel, but none of the silly stuff like The Bachelor, etc.

Lucky! I have a few shots of her from several years ago, before I even knew who she was (and before she became really popular).

Yeah it was a very intimate setting with practice day as not too many people know you can go for free the day before the open starts up.

I have to admit. Jersey Shore is a guilt pleasure of mine everyone loves a train wreck.
