RT converted the CR2 with lots of pink in the sky at right …

… so I edited the posted JPEG instead.

GIMP color>tone-mapping>stress, levels, chroma


no sidecar available in GIMP.

A beautiful image, so for my play in GIMP I have tried to make only subtle changes.

I’m really curious what version of RT and what default settings that you use…I didn’t see anything like that when I opened the file… pink is usually blown highlights without the HLR turned on but even then I didn’t see that??

Just curious…

RT 5.11. The default settings are at whatever come when I open the CR2 raw file.

Maybe I should go back to prefs and makes sure they are all at default …

Very pretty picture! Here’s my dreamy/analog-style edit attempt.

My attempt. Darkened the sky and increased the overall saturation. Didn’t need to do much as it is already a great pic

This seems to be a lot better than uncropped. The lamp is quite distracting

I agree that the lamp is distracting. Anyway I like the complete framing. So I’m still unsure what I like more. I even retouched the lamp, but decided against showing you, because this isn’t me. The lamp is there and it is nothing like a bird or something else which is there just for a short time.
