sla453 Posted September 28, 2018 Share Posted September 28, 2018 Hi Damien Any chance you could give me your opinion on this image of mine. Family love the image, but the background sky is overexposed and unusable.. Aything you can think of to fix it?? Thanks.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted September 28, 2018 Share Posted September 28, 2018 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damien Symonds Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 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!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sla453 Posted September 29, 2018 Author Share Posted September 29, 2018 Maybe I'll revert back to Lightroom and use 'Actions' for my editing from now on ..... Bin the file - it's not worth the agro.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 Can you send me the raw file? https://spaces.hightail.com/uplink/BellePhotography Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damien Symonds Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 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? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sla453 Posted September 29, 2018 Author Share Posted September 29, 2018 (Grandson..!! lol).... Not in that same pose (I did notice his oof face) .. I'll just bin it.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damien Symonds Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 I believe this is your only option. It must be VERY light to be plausible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sla453 Posted September 29, 2018 Author Share Posted September 29, 2018 Bloody hell - that would probably keep them happy... Besides the sky issue - I gather you have masked out the people to expose for the trees then on a different layer added them back in at their correct exposure..?? The sky was actually that cloudless and very bright (up at Mt Coot-tha).. Would it be possible to see your PS workflow and I'll give it a go before I completely get sick of trying to sort it..

Damien Symonds Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
