The almighty PS CS3 Sidonio action revisits old data!

[bmitchell82 (Brendan)]

Well i revisited data from April this year only after a month of me having the 40d (in its un modded state) I was in Laverton WA which is 200km N.E of Kalgroolie.. aka dingo whoop whoop.

Im very serprized in what was actually in the image...

image details

iso 800, 10 x 2 min with 10 darks subtracted canon EFS 18-55mm lens at what f ratio i don't know! all i know is i got the lens chucked it on and focused stars... as always critisim's gladly recived after all thats why i post my images to make them better!

The reprocessed image i cropped because i felt it centered Scorpio much better than the original

[Hagar (Doug)]

Well done Brendan, You lifted a lot more detail out of the repro.

[bmitchell82 (Brendan)]

The best thing i love about the repro is the reflection/emission nebs around antares! i cant wait to get a scope that will fit all in at the same time! thanks once again doug

Well Brendan, if it takes the habit of reprocessing to improve an image this much, I am honored to have this habit named after me, very nice job!

I have to ask. What the %^$& is a Sidonio. I know who it is, but what is it? Is it a PS Action, or just a 'look' or style?

WOOH!!

Go the Sidonio!

Great work mate.. Its always amazing to see what you can do with old data.. I regularly reprocess old data to see what else I can pull out of it..


Peter - Pulling a "Sidonio" is the art of re-processing old data.. Mike is the king of re-pro's.. Check out his gallery... he has many many versions of a few of his shots to highlight different features in the data.. Over time, the words, Repro, re-pro, Reprocessed, redux and rehash have all been replaced in the IIS dictionary with "Sidonio"

[bmitchell82 (Brendan)]

hehehe well put alex i just wish every image i took had this kind of improvement!
