Dear Flossie I was responding to this comment you made in the other thread
What do you think? Am I on the right track? I’m a bit unshure, if I preserve all details in the shadows with my RT preprocessing step. The preprocessed images look relatively dull and the post processing is mostly about lifting the shadows via tonemapping.
Levels is a very easy way of getting contract and brightness where ever you want it in your original shots or the final result. It’s a;so even possible to use the output sliders to create more space for further work and a number of other things.
Too bright yes but then if I didn’t do something pretty obvious with it there would be no point in posting.
