Playing with RAW



I started shooting RAW today. After a very frustrating hour our two, I figured out how Photoshop CS RAW capabilities work (I needed an update) and was able to process my fist RAW shot captured with my D70. I like the white balance tools and the ability to work in 16 bit color. The file sizes are quite large and the workflow is tedious. I am sure it can be automated.

I shot this picture this morning. It is my reflection in an oil tanker truck. I was partially blinded by the reflection of the sun, but I thought it looked interesting with the palm trees running back into the distance.
