Great photographs start with great subject matter, good light, a good sharp lens and a photographer who knows how to put it all together. What most people, including photographers don’t know, is that post processing is just as important as all the hardware and conditions. It takes years to master just a portion of what graphics software can do. I thought I’d give you a glimpse of what I regularly do with a snapshot quality image taken with a great camera & lens. For the techies out there I shot this with a Nikon D800 with a Nikkor 24-70mm F/2.8 lens aboard. ISO 3200, F/5.6, 1/250″. It was handheld and no flash was used.
