Spent some time having some fun today…. one day I’ll talk the model into smiling.

Classic Rembrandt.  Great shadows! Gorgeous image Diane!

Thank you Elin! That was the effects I was hoping to achieve in these.  I learned a lot when I was moving the various sliders/curves and and adjusting the colours.

Thank you Frogdaily!

Thank you Graham!  That’s what lead me to take the smoke images.  I’m hoping to make ‘brushes’ of several of the images, as well as using them to fill in smoke detail when I use smoke/fog for a background.

Thank you Leanne!

Thank you Pat.  I’m always surprised what can come out of by moving the sliders and curves adjustment line in somewhat non-sensical ways. Sometimes the result is no where near what you hope for, but also turns out quite intriguing.

Thank you Preston!  I think the chain is my favorite of the all ones I have done also.

Thank you Patrick.

Here’s a few non-standard edited images done in LR 5.7 (I still haven’t upgraded)…

I’ll post the edited image, followed by the original image.

I liked this image the first time I saw it.  It’s only getting better.

Great image Elin!

Great image Jasenka!

I hope you were you able to make a preset to apply to the remaining images?… would save a lot of work having to only do minor adjustments afterwards.

Thank you Bruce!

I would be tempted to ‘clone in’ some color to the RH side of the hole in clouds causing the blown-out highlights. I would try and tone it down so it is close the LH side of this opening.

I realize the it is caused from the sun trying to peak out from the clouds, but because I can’t see the sun (or part of it), and there is no other indication…[Read more]

Thanx Rob.  Great idea!

Thanx for both taking the time to look… and comment.  It’s greatly appreciated!

Thank you Beaky.

Thank you Preston.
