Beautiful Jodie! I love your images too. Nice PP.

Jodi, the images look great! I just recently downloaded the trial version of lightroom and played with it a little. What specifically are you doing to your images to get the pop with the little vignetting?

Again, great work!

These are really quite nice...I too would like to know some of your secrets...

Hi Thanks everyone.
I have downloaded a lot of free presets on the net including the wow presets and some from i think it was landscape lightroom or somewhere. Even the canon 1d presets even through i use a 5D and fiddle around with them and get some great results. I love the colour of the CAL Canon 1DS MK11 Daylight and Tungsten preset and use this for details, modified a little if too much. I have developed some of my own.
I photograph in jpeg and find that sometimes the 5D is a little more on the red side when it comes to skin tones so i use the wow preset skin and sometimes need to warm others up. I will look up my favourates and post them if they are the free ones so you can get them and play with them yourself.
Thanks
Jodie
