A couple from today

[eccs19]

Taken today after I finished clearing the snow from everywhere. C&C please, particularly, did I get the white balance correct with the snow?

I think they look good. How did you color balance it?

 

[Chewbecca]

Nice shots, BUT, they are a tad under-exposed. Trying upping the exposure a hair (very, very little) and up the contrast to about 10.

I used the eye dropper in Lightroom. Seemed to do a pretty good job.

Thanks. I'll give that a try and see how they look.

How about these?

 

[Chewbecca]

for the first one, I'd up the contrast 5 more, and then in curves, I'd raise the side closest to the upper right just a very, very little.
It takes away that gray-ish look.
Were these shot in RAW?

Yes. I've slightly cropped them from the original, but definately RAW.

That, to me, explains the gray film I'm seeing over the pictures.
I almost looks like a faint fog/smoke.
Like, a combination of under exposure and lack of contrast. And sometimes a lack of color saturation.
I experience this when I shoot in raw. And I don't know why.

I find them under exposed & the DoF too short. Alternatively, cut the DoF to the primary subject.

Nice shots, but up contrast and exposure.

Because you didn't postprocess them.
