- Can others edit my Photos
- Photos NOT OK to edit
I was in Iceland for four days and one of the reasons to go was to take a day with a master photographer, Ragnar Sigurdson.
The photography part was fine and I felt fairly confident but after watching Ragnar edit for a couple of hours in his studio I felt totally inadequate in comparison.
Today I started looking at some photos I brought back and, after seeing him work in LR and PS, I could guess how good they could be in his hands and I couldn't see myself ever getting even close to that level.
I couldn't even bring myself to start working on them.
Maybe I'll feel differently in a day or so but right now.......
FYI, his name is Ragnar TH. Sigurdson. Arctic Images Ragnar Sigurdsson or on Flickr at https://www.flickr.com/photos/34333120@N00/ )
He has only comparatively few images online since he sells mainly commercially.
Seeing them on the screen does not begin to compare with what they look like printed.
