[QUOTE="Hyogen, post: 114525, member: 12676"] These following pics are ones I took in seattle in less than ideal light. I know I should have at least used fill flash, but this is the best I could PP them in lightroom. Not very pleased with them. I mainly want the skin tones to look right, but that may not be possible with the yellowish street lights. As you can see some I PP'd to be a little more magenta and some a little more yellow. Could you guys give me some advice about how I could have made these shots better? Also, how you would have taken them without flash. (I don't like using the built-in flash...maybe I'll look into a pop-up diffuser for it). I'm pretty sure I shot around iso5000, f/1.8 or 2, and possibly 1/60 or so shutter speed. I think I realized that 1/50 shutter speed for a 50mm lens isn't quite fast enough for me in all situations :) I could even post the RAW files if anyone is willing to have a go at them. What I SHOULD do in the future is use a flash/diffuser....expose for the background....underexpose for the background a little? Thanks!
