[QUOTE="Pretzel, post: 315542, member: 12257"] [b]Re: nidding's first year of shooting[/b] Oops, forgot to include what I messed with. Sorry!!! 1) I used the "clarity" and "shadows" sliders in LR5 to bring out a little detail and lighten some of the darker areas. 2) Dabbled a bit inside OnOne's Perfect Effects 8 (was lucky enough to get it free with their last promo) to add a mix of light HDR, grunge and grain effects, protecting the skin tones and shadow areas a touch with the sliders. I put a layer here, added a layer there, removed the layers I didn't like, messed a bit more. 3) All of that to try and get to the look/story/feel I had in my head. 4) Having said all that, I am NOT implying my edits are any better, just toying around. Again, Really LOVE that last edit ya put out there! FANTASTIC feel to it! Now we've gone from 21st century man remembering a forgotten era to "could have been there right after battle" kinda pics. At least, IMO. ;) Thanks for letting me tinker! [/QUOTE]
