arizona landscape versus the nikon p1100
This is a shoot that took me forever to edit. I really do love my Nikon Coolpix P1100 since it's just a fun camera, not really one I would try and photograph a wedding with. However, the maximum focal length of 3000mm means I could probably photograph a wedding I wasn't invited to from the next state over.
I should probably take some time to configure the picture styles on it so I can get good enough JPEGs directly out of the camera. That, and play to its strengths next time. It's a fantastic camera when I'm not trying to squeeze a rocky, hazy, desert landscape onto a smartphone camera sensor at 24mm.
I had gone through and edited all of the photos, sat on them for maybe a week, then went back and trashed all of my original edits. I feel like I get "editor eyes" or something. Like when you're just staring at the same image making tiny adjustments over and over, and you don't see in the moment how ridiculous and blown out you made the image look until you return to it an hour later. I have a love/hate relationship with editing. If I have a specific look I'm targeting, I can usually pull it off fairly well. But the issue is I sit down in front of a completely unmodified RAW and have absolutely zero clue what "style" I wanna do.
