How to create a copyright mark on your photos.

Mark your images as your own.

There are many methods how to make copyright or watermark on images. Most popular way is to create action and apply it to all images at once, but sometime it is hard to make it fit nicely both vertical and horizontal  oriented images. You can find such tutorials in internet . I’ll describe the method what I use while preparing photos for blogs or forum.  The advantage of this technique is that you can put your copyright text  in a better  place for each photo. Here is a simple way to use brushes in Photoshop.

Architectural Photography Post-Production

I would like to share some examples on how we do a post-processing for architectural photography. Below you’ll see before and after images with explanation what we did and how. Sometime the result looks like HDR, but it is not a real HDR, where HDR processor compiles several images into one. The results often looks not real, showing non-existent lighting and colors. Which is OK for the Art, but unacceptable for a commercail photography.
The best way is a manual process, where we replace some parts of the image, using masking or working with dodge or burn tools. More examples of such techniques you can find in our Portfolio
