Damien Symonds

I know what you mean, but I don't see what else you can do.

https://www.damiensymonds.net/2011/07/obtaining-before-version-of-raw-edit-in.html In truth, it's impossible to post, or even see, an SOOC of a raw file. https://www.damiensymonds.net/2011/02/theres-no-such-thing-as-sooc-raw-photo.html

Of course. First make a thread in the Raw Class so we can discuss the raw processing there. Then make a thread in the Levels Class so we can discuss the Photoshop part.

I believe this is your only option. It must be VERY light to be plausible.

If it were possible to do something passable with the sky (and I'm afraid I'm not optimistic) did you have another photo of the eldest son in focus ready to swap in?

Can you send me the raw file? https://spaces.hightail.com/uplink/BellePhotography

Well ... this is a joke, right? You're pulling my leg? "I'll pretend that I don't know how to do raw editing, that'll make Damien chuckle!"

Lol, good one

Well, I figure that our options with the sky will be dictated by how much tree detail can be recovered. Go ahead and do your raw processing then show me the SOOR.

Also, I figure he'll need to know about your gear - camera and lenses.

Brian will need to see examples.

Where did you go, @Sandra Shan?

Try the matching thing first. It may not work as well as advertised, but it can't hurt to try.

Thanks. When you do, can you also show me a 100% crop from the master file? (That is, without the resizing or sharpening for print).

@Jan Mac, are you still there?

Yeah, almost. https://www.damiensymonds.net/2013/09/grabbing-700x700px-100-crop.html

Yup.

Yes, but that's not stopping you. All you need to do is join them again and post a few. You can be in the Skin Class by this time tomorrow if you apply yourself.

I'm pretty sure you know the answer to this one, mate

Why?

The skin one, of course.

May I see a 100% crop of that area in your print file?

No, you definitely haven't. https://www.damiensymonds.net/trainingskin.html

What do you mean, help? Take the damn class, you mug!
