Title: This photograph has bugged me...
Post by: David Eckels on February 16, 2024, 07:34:30 pm: ...ever since I tried to process it late in 2022. I decided to rework it from the standpoint of the things I have learned in the last year. I think I'm finally satisfied... somewhat ;)

In film they call a deliberate colorcast 'grading'... nothing wrong with that and this could be a reaistic colorcast.

Thanks, Kers. I was indeed going for a warm hue.
