JenniferK Posted June 9, 2016 Posted June 9, 2016 I've uploaded my two SOOC shots. I'd like to have one image that captures the view out the window, as well as the details of the interior room. Is that possible with these two SOOC shots?
Damien Symonds Posted June 9, 2016 Posted June 9, 2016 Because you didn't use a tripod, no, it would be damn near impossible. Could you send me the raw files?
Damien Symonds Posted June 10, 2016 Posted June 10, 2016 Out of interest, why do you work with DNG files?
Damien Symonds Posted June 10, 2016 Posted June 10, 2016 As I mentioned earlier, if you'd shot on a tripod, you might have had other options (ie HDR). But in this situation, just choose one of the files and process it in the usual way. Choosing which file to use is a balancing act. Brighter files are better quality (not so noisy) but darker files have more outdoors detail visible through the window, as you know. As it happens, in this case, the darker file has noticeably better focus than the brighter one, so that decision is more or less made for us. I processed the darker file in ACR, then did some Levels work, to get this: With more time, it would be possible to enhance the outdoor detail a little more, of course, but even as you see here, it's fairly visible.
JenniferK Posted June 10, 2016 Author Posted June 10, 2016 Thank you Damien. I appreciate your help. I no longer remember why I have them converted to dng on import. Is there a problem with dng's?
