Isn't that a SOOC pic?

Thanks! The final PP outcome is a lot dependent on my mood at that point of time. But yes, like Bandhav pointed out I like the way under exposed pics bring out a certain dramatic angle to the pics!

Nope its not SOOC, there is some amount of PP in that too. But its the same pic which is not underexposed!

The Pic I clicked has got a Lot of Light in it.

I am no PP guru buddy, but the basic thing to achieve this is get the picture to be underexposed. You can do that by playing with the exposure level, blacks and contrast in Photoshop. I would be the wrong person to ask about Photoshop as I have no idea about it, I just play on the sliders available and get the result that I want!

When master himself has said that he is no expert you know where i belong.

As far as the picture is concerned i like it for what it is, a beautiful moment made immortal (provided there is no HDD crash) by camera. So no critique from my side either, bring it on some more stuff and i will try to play the role of perfect critique.

And always try to keep the exposure one click low, as the UE shots can be corrected to a large extent during pp but doing the same with OE shots it can be real tough.

The outcome really looks good..

One should always keep varying the outcome of the pics..!!

Yes, I am Abhijeet. It's just it's been used for professional purposes apart from posting on this thread. Hence, under the trademark/ copyright, I cannot really share the larger version of the photograph for usage. However, the photograph which I have posted can be used for non-commercial purposes.

I hope you understand.
