Exercise 11

OCAlogoFor this exercise I choose three photographs taken at my brother's wedding in Prague.  I choose three with different lighting conditions.  I took the pictures as both a JPEG and a NEF RAW file.  For the JPEG file I left it pretty much unaltered.  With all the pictures there is a considerable amount of differences particularly with the lighting and white balance.  
The first of the two shots is the jpeg version that has become lighter and the white balance is clearer.  The dynamic range is more centrally balanced on the JPEG.



With this shot the first picture, the JPEG has a softer and more colourful approach, the dynamic range is pretty steep in places but is much harsher in the second shot the RAW version.

For the final shot I used one that had been taken with a flash.  The dynamic range is loaded to the left and there are hidden areas in the JPEG version at the top, in the RAW version there is a better balance to the right and the underexposed areas in the JPEG are clearly visible.  The white balance in the JPEG gives a far more softer version of the picture.
