So, I'm looking through the forum and everyone here is using the same equipment but the pictures are drastically different. Leads me to one conclusion, everyone's post-editing skills are different.
I'm starting this thread to help each other out with some advice, tip, and tricks that we've all learned. I hope everyone will participate. I'll go first:
I shoot in RAW
Use Photoshop CC 2014
Upon importing the DNG file, photoshop opens a slider menu. These help bring out more color but excessive editing will make the picture look grainy.
The menu has adjustable sliders for key components (play with each one and see how your pictures changes):
Saturation
Vibrance
Clarity
Exposure
Contrast
Shadows
... and so on.
For most of my pictures I use the DJI lens correction (downloadable add-on for Adobe). This get's rid of the fish eye look if desired.
I wish I could make certain parts of the picture better as there's usually one defined focal point, but that's beyond my skills.
Here's my latest:
