Lee Duguid — Tue, 23 Apr 2013 08:00:00 +0000

Welcome to my Before and After Photoshop confess all post. I hope this gives you better understanding of the power of Photoshop and why good post processing technique is so important in a photographers workflow.

Lee Duguid Photography – April 2013 Newsletter

Lee Duguid — Tue, 09 Apr 2013 10:53:50 +0000

Wow isn't the year just flying by! Not long until I'll be completely consumed by my forthcoming wedding (December) and photography will be put on the back burner (and rightfully so). Well that seems to have somewhat already happened actually, my camera has been out of action for the last month. My poor camera took a [...]

Stockton Beach Sand dunes Worimi Conservation Lands

Lee Duguid — Mon, 08 Apr 2013 02:04:48 +0000

After teaching Photoshop up in Newcastle I thought it would be rude not to squeeze in a shoot. What better place to spend some precious photography time than at the mightily impressive Stockton Beach and its towering sand dunes. This is the second time I’ve been to Stockton and it still fills me with giddiness [...]

Oakland Falls Hazelbrook Blue Mountains National Park

Lee Duguid — Thu, 04 Apr 2013 08:03:07 +0000

After a ton of rain a couple weeks back, pictures of the now raging waterfalls of Blue Mountains National Park where whetting my appetite (oh dear). With the continued rain I pulled the pin on a photography course I was taking that day and headed to Hazelbrook, a new place for me to explore. On [...]

The Big Stopper by Lee Filters is an amazingly popular 10 stop Neutral Density filter allowing photographers to shoot 30+ second exposures in the brightest of conditions.

13 inch Macbook Air review Photo Editing Photoshop

Lee Duguid — Tue, 12 Feb 2013 02:36:54 +0000

After much deliberating I finally took the plunge and got a Apple Macbook Air. With all the travel I have coming up over the next two years it was time to go portable. For the last six months I’ve been lugging my 27 inch iMac to my Photoshop courses and with some further afield courses [...]

Colour Space for Web – Setting Colour Space in Photoshop or Lightroom

Lee Duguid — Wed, 23 Jan 2013 06:30:06 +0000

A mistake we all have to learn from is uploading images to the web in the wrong colour space. I was doing this a few years back and couldn’t figure out why there was such a large colour shift between Photoshop and what was viewable on the web (including my website and Flickr). So what was going [...]
