Some purple?

Like them all, that last shot best of all. Next time try to pose their legs and perhaps arms too in some kind of keltic knot looking shape, just a thought that might look cool.

*** steps up on soapbox ***

The photo you show is all that matters. What the client sees, or us, or the people that look at your site trying to decide to hire you is what matters.

If you can't get it right in-camera, you'll spend a TON of time post processing something that 2 clicks of a thumb wheel would have done at the beginning.

Those of us learning, NEED to make sure its right in the camera. The bottom line is, only another photographer cares how much post processing, what gels, how many lights, etc. Aside from sharing opinions and thougts with one another, we don't really count.

Hmmm. So I should be shooting 800 by 600 pixels at 72 pixels per inch in the camera so I don't have to do any post work...

I don't think so...

I think the idea that is being said and suggested is the better it is out of the camera, the better the final will be post?

I got it, but he did say without any post and that just doesn't happen. Resizing is post, so is setting the image up for web use (sRGB, 72 dpi... or whatever).

Hahaha, true.

I like your use of the RAW format and getting it "right" in camera. I like seeing images that haven't been over worked in PS. Great job buddy!

Another, same shoot totally different deal. Bar and natural light only.

Also a processed version of one of the original purple shots.

Hey, it's a minor point and I'm bein' really nit picky, but shouldn't it be available light?

Last time I looked the sun wasn't under a bar...

Bar is available light; and then natural light. "Thus the bar and natural light only"
