I will share some of the most important “SECRET” tricks of my photography. It’s very easy and simple to make your photos look better by just a little bit of editing!!
1. How to edit your color photos.
2. How to edit your black & white photos.
3. Bad examples & good examples.
- If you’re not planning to store your photos on external HDD.
- If you’re not a professional photographer and don’t need to organize whole bunch of photos at once.
Why Aperture?
- If you want to store your photos on External HDD and still view them through Aperture and edit them as if their on your actual Mac HDD.
- Rating tool, if you need to go through tons of photos at once and decide which one you’re going to keep and which doesn’t.
- Only $80. If you can’t afford Photoshop CS yet…
- If you usually just edit your photos a little bit, like brightness and contrast, Aperture is for you.
* No tripod was used to photograph these two photos.
What is “Sigma”?
“Sigma produces products to work with cameras from Canon, Nikon, Pentax, Sony, Olympus and Panasonic, as well as for their own cameras.” (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sigma_Corporation for an English article)
