TRA Recipes | Totally Rad Actions

most of you photographers know that i cook my images with totally rad actions. i dont know why but i just love the feel of their actions. it is 110% what i have envisioned my photo to be. they are actually “smart” actions in my opinion, they dont just take your photo and plop on some color or contrast boost haphazardly, they actually take into account where the dark and light parts of your photo sare and cooks the image accordingly and appropriately.

one of my images is up on their site! cool! brian and charlene, you guys shall be seen worldwide! i think anyone can get their images on there too so im not that special. submit your images and share how youve processed them to inspire the rest!!

and i wish i was paid for this plug for them hahah. http://gettotallyrad.com/recipes/

and my one image is under the b&w section (http://gettotallyrad.com/recipes/80/lynn-kai-chao/). there you can find the simple steps of how i created that look (its not only post processing, its getting the look right from the get go too). i dont just post process just for the heck of it, i do it to give the photo the exact feeling i want it to portray…aka “enhance” the photo. there is much more to be learned and i am constantly learning!!! post processing aside, even looking at this photo now, i think i could have improved it 100 fold!
