Title: berg and mountain
Post by: Jeremy Roussak on February 18, 2018, 01:31:55 pm: I'm not sure about this one. Does the band of cloud wreck it or make it? Sometimes I think the former, sometimes the latter.

I can't disagree. Something like this, you mean?

Yes! That does it for me. Much better.
I guess you must have had a good time in the Deep South. I'm looking forward to more.

On the image, I shot I lightened the iceberg to give it a bit of separation. Use the HSL sliders in LR to play with the fine tuning a bit.

Nice image. Hard to believe it was just a little more than a week ago when we were there.

Thanks. It seems a world away, and I suppose it was.

LR, Kevin? After you were doing so well converting me to C1?

Post by: Rajan Parrikar on February 23, 2018, 03:40:13 pm: The second interpretation is very good, but I think the image still has more goodness to be squeezed out of it, especially the blue berg.
