I ALWAYS SHOOT IN RAW FORMAT as it gives me maximum flexibility to change the image at any time after the shot has been taken. RAW contains all of the information collected by the sensor but a jpeg has been compressed into a smaller file and loses a lot of this flexibility.
This image of Concorde’s engine was taken without a flash in a very dark corner of the hanger.
Handheld it’s even blurred. Consequently the image is dull and would normally be deleted as of no interest. However as it is shot in RAW I could do some major adjustments in Camera Raw or Lightroom without losing quality. Vibrance, Saturation, Exposure and Contrast were all changed not just by tweaking as normal but by moving the sliders allot and in some cases to the maximum giving this almost HDR effect. I have not added any colour just maxed out what was captured by the camera.
