I find it's simply not necessary most of the time. But to each his/her own.

Andrew, regarding processing the image of your nephew - have you considered brightening up the little chap a bit, and calming down the background, particularly the strong blue in the window and the bright yellowish object on his left?

Cheers.

Wonderful colours and compositions, Adrian. And flowing water that looks like flowing water (not cotton wool). My choice would be number 4 for the framing of the scene between the trees and the detailed close foreground leaves.

Cheers.

Just a small point, Nigel. After the JPEG has been processed and saved in a Pentax K-5, you can preview the image and then, if you wish, opt to save the Raw data file also, by pressing the AE-L button. But I don't know whether this is an option in other Pentax cameras.

Cheers.

Although I shoot JPEG almost all the time, I do use DNG as well. Adobe Camera Raw seems to do the job, nestled comfortably within Photoshop CS5.

Same here - so using the one in the K-5 II most of the time! The images OOC are then edited in PaintShop Pro X6. For the odd Raw image file (DNG), I use the simplified ACR that comes with Elements 10, which I find better than the Raw converter in PSP.

As John has written, the results from the sort mentioned in Post #1 are not that good. However, a friend at the local camera club has achieved very good close-ups with the Raynox 250 - it is only macro not a wide-angle adapter though.

Cheers.

No criticism, I can only agree with everyone here - wonderful images of handsome subjects. I like them all and my favourite is number 5.

Cheers.

Many thanks to you all for viewing and commenting, and an extra thank you for the further analysis, Nigel.

Number 5 is my favourite of the set, and it has made a lovely print.

Cheers.
