This one started off pretty rough but the rest of the set were properly exposed… honest

Perhaps underexpose a bit less next time :crazy_face:

The default white balance is indeed not great, but measuring on the horse’s head worked well - just had to adjust the chroma. That still had a bit too much yellow for my taste in the grass, so shifted green towards cyan in rgb primaries. Also decreased blue purity.

I’m starting to understand basic noise reduction (But I must work on it A LOT!)
Thank you for the play! :pray:

Noise was a challenge. A higher ISO in camera would have reduced the noise by giving brighter exposure. Low ISO is not always good at reducing noise as under exposure creates noise.

Good efforts one and all. Tending towards the softer less contrast-y ones, even the noise helps out there
