Problematic Poinciana

Not in flower (it was April), but the largest specimen in my tagged collection.

I was completely unaware of this kind of tree before this thread, so I looked it up. I’m surprised to learn that it is a type of bean plant!

@paulmatth , where can I find this “Tetrahedral Color Warping (HSL) module”. Which version of “Art” is this module in? Where can I find documentation?

Edit:
Paul answered my question (thank you), see below. Also I found a topic about this on this forum:

https://discuss.pixls.us/t/new-feature-support-for-ctl-scripts

Hello @iarga , it’s the latest version of ART, 1.21. Get it from here:

https://bitbucket.org/agriggio/art/downloads/

You also need to download the ctl scripts, they are here:

https://bitbucket.org/agriggio/art-ctlscripts/src/master/

As usual with ART: no documentation, apart from some words of Alberto / @agriggio

Hi,
I’ve added one-line descriptions of the filters to the README

For some reason I tried this one on both RT and ART.
I didn’t try to “equalize” values, just tried to make the picture feel nice and bold the red.
I also tried not to use “advanced” color settings (HSL, curves, etc). Just “played” with the “simple” controllers.

I first used RT, then ART, then 2nd attempt on RT.

I liked in RT:

  • That the clouds feel more “real”.
  • More detailed feel of the tree trunks.
  • That It was pretty fast and easy to get this result.
    I did try though in second version to make the sky feel more like in ART, but couldn’t get there quite right.

I liked in ART:

  • More “natural”, clear look, of the sky.
  • Less detailed = more “easy-on-the-eyes” (subjective, of course).

I assume if I would have tried harder “one-on-one” settings, or somethings like that, I might have gotten more look-alike results, but again, I did this in NO professional manner, just tried to make it feel nice and red :slight_smile: and to see “something” about my “work-flow” (I’m still very new to this).

Thank you for the practice!
