    This is super helpful, I’m not a pro but I was able to extrapolate your edits to other mobile photo software programs and it works great!

      I am so glad it was helpful. Which mobile software are you using? Lightroom also has an amazing mobile app that is super easy to use. Let me know if you have tried it.

    Hi Amrita, I’m quite impressed with your workflow and final outcome. Out of curiosity, what do use for your computer screen calibration. Thanks.

      Hi Norm, thanks so much for your kind words. I used to use the SpyderX a few years ago but recently haven't calibrated my monitor in a while. I use Apple IMac and haven't really felt a need to calibrate it.

    what paper do you use for printing for this kind of photo, I mean the brand? for example: canson infinity etc etc

    Hello Amrita, what do you do with your Still‘s ? How do you market them? Stockphotography or sell them any other way? I would like to know more about that....Greetings Sarah

      @AmritaBhortake  3 роки тому

      Hi Sarah, I used to have a shop on Etsy. That’s a good way to go if you don’t have a website. If you have your own website, I would recommend setting up your print shop on the website. Hope that helps.

    Congratulations for saying, "This is how I do it. You should make your own." So many say, "This is the One True Way."
    Please, watch some news reports and current affairs programs. How many have music running? At least yours isn't dominating, but a lot of us older people have ears that don't work as well as they used to, and have difficulty distinguishing speech from ambient sounds.
