Hi all, have only fairly recently got into this photography lark .
I've got a Canon EOS500d plus a Sigma 120 - 400 plus a macro and a kit lens.
I'm beginning to get some quite nice shots but I find I lose it in the edit somewhat. I see people getting better results with the same camera/lens so I'm sure it must be me.
I am using the Canon DPP which came with the camera and also have the Photo Style editor which to be frank I can't understand the instructions of.
Can some kind soul either point me in the right direction using these or advise whether I'd be better off with Photoshop - I'm sure Elements will be fine as I suspect the full-blow version would be far more than I need (or could reasonably afford).
Many thanks for your help
