Hi all,
Another taken on the same morning as my last two posts taken in dull conditions. I have spent a little more time on this one trying to lift the colours etc but the only real fix is a revisit & reshoot in better conditions IMHO. I am only putting 'lipstick on the pig' so to speak, but feel free to tell me what you think anyway...
1D4 and 70 to 200 F2.8 I at 180mm, sitting on a tripod.
1/25 sec at F14, ISO 160.
cropped a little of the top and bottom...
My usual process is to adjust black and white points in ACR and adjust the highlights and shadows to suit. Then imported into CS6 where i worked on the sky, water and rocks in three different layers, adjusting mainly the colour and vibrance levels. Finally used the NIK output sharpening selectively (rocks only).
