Most photographs have to be tweaked in post-processing. Just because your images don’t turn out perfectly in terms of color and contrast, don’t think you are doing something wrong. This is just the nature of digital technology. In this picture of a farmer in Burma, I had to lighten the shadow on the man’s face, darken the sky, and add a bit of color saturation. I did all of that in Adobe Camera Raw. Then I had to remove a telephone pole in the background using the clone tool in Photoshop. My settings for this picture were 1/500, f/7.1, 250 ISO, and I used a 400mm focal length.
