If have been getting quite a few questions wanting to know how I process my images. Without wanting to sound rude, unfortunately I can't answer everybody's questions. The best advice I can offer is to try different things in whatever software you use. Don't be afriad to try new things. Also, Google is a great tool. Do some online searches for photoshop (or similar) tutorials. Part of photography is developing YOUR OWN style & not copying what somebody else is doing. Sure it may be flattering, but it may be annoying too, besides, you're not doing anything for yourself as an individual photographer. Try to be unique...it's very difficult, believe me I know. I am not THAT unique, but I am trying & will keep developing my style.
Sorry if I come across as a total pr1ck, I am trying to say this as nicely as I can, and with good intentions! Please forgive me if I come across as arogant....I'm actually quite a nice person...or at least I think so :)

thewoodenshoes says:

"Before considered doing a 365 project, the images flowing from Anthony's stream became some of my most favorite examples of how to see light before closing the shutter and how to process, maximizing the light's potential in post. Anthony's kind and considerate demeanor through correspondence is a clear and concise representation of the kind of person he is; he is always willing to explain concepts indicated in his images and never tip-toes around the wonderful advice he gives. Anthony keeps it real! Friends like him are a breath of fresh air...."
