Adobe Lightroom Raw Edit of the WEEK 53 - Portrait with Nikon 35 1.8

I love older world looking images that allow for editing to take them many directions. This image was taken with the Nikon D40 which is a much older camera at this point with the Nikon 35 1.8. There is absolutely nothing wrong with the Nikon D40 it is a good little camera that is great for people to learn on. When you put on the Nikon 35 1.8 you are going to get great images just like this one below.

What will you do with this, will you crop it, go color, go black and white or do something totally off the wall?

Try doing your normal edit followed by one that is totally off the wall or something that you would not normally do. It is always a good thing to challenge yourself to try something a little different than you are used to, you may like the results.

Kinda hating the reverb you've been using on your voice, Jared. Turn it down please?

[JaredPolin]

@quisge ha, theres no reverb, it is my new space, it is big it echos, it will stop echoing as I get more stuff into it.

Where the he'll is the "See Ya" :)

[JaredPolin]

@dickiedocker ah, it looks like it got cut a little no biggie.

@hugolct hey there, I do that at the end of the week. I would assume you are new to the site. What happens is each tuesday we put out a new RAW file to edit. I let everyone do their edits and come Friday Adam and I show you exactly how we would edit the images. You can check out all the past edits 52 weeks worth on the main web site.

@JaredPolin Hey man! Happy Holidays sir!

I am going on a trip to D.C and am bringing my D3100, kit lens, 55-200vr (I know you hate that lens) and my brand new 35mm 1.8. Since the Smithsonian does not allow the use of a tri or monopod do you have any tips to get some great shots inside the dim lighting of the museum? High ISO and somewhat show shutter speed I get but I am curious to get your opinion. I also have a polarizer filter and UV filter (uv mainly for protection) Thanks dude!

I can't figure out where to get the picture to edit

@quisge it's a natural echo from his new studio space, it's not a reverb effect.
