Our RAW challenge is going to present us with a number of issues to consider when editing this image.
High ISO was needed because of the stage lighting and the need to freeze the action. There is the resulting noise as well as white balance issues to be dealt with. Perspective may need correcting. Finally consider where to crop to focus on the action on stage.
1. Participants in the challenge may provide a screenshot of their edits within the RAW converter of their choice along with the reasons for their edits.
2.Following their initial edits members may use whatever “tools" they wish to create an image that portrays their artistic vision for the image as long as the character of the original image is not lost. You may not add anything to the image that wasn’t already there.
3. Including information on plug-ins, actions, external editors, textures etc that were used will only help to inform members of some of the creative options that are available to today’s photographer.
4. Including layer stacks may be something to consider when presenting a final edit.
5. You may not add any objects that were not in the original image.
6. Submissions for this challenge end on Thursday, June 20th.
7. At the end of the challenge the photographer will choose three favorite edits.
