Webinar Recording: Optimizing Detail in Photos

On Wednesday, May 15th, I presented a live online presentation on “Optimizing Detail in Photos” as part of my “GreyLearning Live!” webinar series.

During the presentation I shared tips for determining how much detail should be revealed in a photo, and demonstrated techniques for revealing just the right amount of detail and enhancing overall texture in photos.

You can view a recording of the full presentation on my “Tim Grey TV” channel on YouTube (be sure to subscribe and like!) here:
