Jumping For Joy...
NO processing other than boosting the contrast and clarity etc. a little bit. (Meaning, the color is out-of-camera...) See, I told you I was getting close to the perfect sepia with my D300! In fact, I may prefer these colors to the ones in my previous post, the sepia that was done in Bridge CS3... (I shot that headshot in RAW so I lost my in-camera processing for it. But I switched to JPG for this image, cause by then I had gotten the B&W / sepia pretty dialed...)I used the orange color filter to take this this image, which helped darken greener tones and brighten warmer skin tones... I'm not sure which works better for human skin, the yellow, orange or red filter. (And it depends on the skin color too, I bet... But one thing's for sure, this is way better than the flat boring-ness that used to come out of digital cameras 5 years ago!
Take care all,

i hope she didn't land on her knees
I usually don't like Sepia because I think it's like looking at the picture through mud but the contrast and details on this one is so good! Love reading your site (and your other camera tech one) for photography help! Have so many of your entries bookmarked *laugh*
That girl can really add a lot of height!
I love this shot. The color is so rich and warm. Fun!
Slick man... Very, very nice.
Amaaazing shot!!! I love it!
Love this shot!
Hey - thanks for all your feedback on Showit Sites. As you can tell we're still in beta and it's a big app so there's lots to work out. Many of the requests you gave are in the que so we're cranking out the bugs/features asap and we love the feedback so keep it coming! ...and we'd love to have you help out in So-Cal. That'd be awesome!
Currently there are 11 of us and 4 are full time developers on Sites so we can get stuff added and changed but it just takes a little time.
Again, thanks for having a look and each day it's getting better and we're pushing out updates every week.
Rock on,DJ
