  1. Guess I miss the point of this very choppy video entirely. (?) The only thing it does for me is remind me of how bad Flash is. :~(

    1. Hey Ramón. How sad the video is “chopping out” on you. 🙁 On the mac both the Flash and the HTML5 player are playing it smoothly. Same thing on the iPad and iPhone. At least down here. I wonder if someone else is experiencing the choppiness.

  2. A bit all too clichéed in terms of the chosen views… Typical “American tourist in Paris” shots, if I may say so. The city has much more to offer than that. Some interesting color effects, though.

  3. …a Canon G10 and some RAW processing. No Photoshop
    Is that supposed to be a complement somehow?
    “Look, I used a tone mapping program other than Photoshop, which you know, is associated with everything that’s not real, and by doing so, I try to add status to my work. You see, that way I won’t get questions like: ‘was the sky really this dark or did you Photoshopped it? ‘
    Nah, with that introductory line, you automatically get: ‘wow, no Photoshop, what a great Photographer he must be.”
    Gee. How long will it take for people to stop evaluating art for the craft involved in creating the piece instead of what’s right in front of them.
    – That photo sucks.
    – No it doesn’t, the photographer not only build his own camera, but polished the lenses and even mined the silver halide for his home grown acetate!
    – Wow, that’s a lot of work…


    still sucks though.

    1. Hello Heitor (by the name, a fellow Brazilian, maybe?). When I did this video and added “a Canon G10 and some RAW processing” my intention was first, to give information on how it was done and, second, to show how we can achieve some great results using only RAW Processing (in this case, I’ve used ACR). There’s no intention at all to diminish the use of Photoshop by photographers, specially because I use it all the time myself. Therefore, I hope you didn’t get offended with the “no Photoshop” statement. It was just info! Huge fan of digital post processing here.
