Creating The Perfect Image
H
ow long does it usually take you to edit one image? Well it all determines on what you are going for. If you do not know what you want out of the photograph, experiment. I will tell you that it usually takes me about 3 to 5 days to edit one picture. The reason why it takes so long is because I want the best quality work and every time that I look at this photo, I see something that is wrong and change it. The first day is just a rush through picking out the photos that are great and then putting them to the side, then I take the photos that are ok and put them separate so I can at least salvage what I can and experiment with them. And for the other leftovers, I just toss them in the trash. The second day is editing day, where I pick 5 images and out of those five images, I would start off with the ones that are, that I think will be easiest to edit. 85% of the time the images that I pick are easy but the other 15% are just bad luck. I would then edit the exposures, shadows, and etc. the third day I would put the finishing touches on but here is the frustrating part. I will think that I am done but I am really not then I would start the whole process all over again because it’s not to my satisfaction. So for all of you photographers who can edit an image within 2 days and have a finish product, I am amazed!
What Now? Photographers Lesson 101

hat happens when you finally spent hours and weeks perfecting one photo? The answer to that……..You keep shooting until you have another image to perfect. Knowing that you have finally finished a photo has left an emptiness in you, the urge to go out right that minute you finish to shoot more. How many of you photographer feel that way? let me guess, the majority of you. no photographer can say that they never felt the urge to go out and shoot after editing, that’s like saying after I finish reading a book, I don’t have the urge to fall asleep. Then I would just be lying to myself. After perfecting an Image, I want to go shoot, I really do not care what it is, landscape, people, architect, or even macro. I JUST HAVE THE URGE! That can be a bad case of a disease that can be treated. All you need to do is go through all of your photos and find another photo to edit. I will guarantee you that the photo that you are looking for, “THE SOON TO BE PERFECT IMAGE”, will be there, and once you find it, you will be satisfied until you finish that photo and at that point, then you got out and do another shoot, take some photos

We are here to help Artist all around
Aberration is a promotional company that feeds on helping other artist become much better artist that they are now. We help them to see the other side of the earth. They may only see one side of it at that may be through a lens or a paintbrush but we want them to have the full experience to try everything that may inspire them in the real world. We help promote artist by hosting events such as fashion shows for models and designers for them to show their collections that they have designed. We also host art gallery shows for artist like photographers, painters and sculptors. So things like that we help with but if you really want to see first hand on what we do, then I suggest that you come firsthand and get involved yourself.
