I watched the latest @s7habo (Boris) videos about contrast, It opened my eye, brain to a topic I did not understand correctly.
So with that I tried to edit a picture from signature edits. No great improvements where done on the colors of the image, concentrated only on contrast with Contrast Equalizer (thats what I think I did).
I am on the fence about this. Play raws are for your own work, and signature edits does not say you are free to redistribute their file. Their license is not super clear…

This license does not include the right to compile photos from Signature Edits to replicate a similar or competing service or to misrepresent the authorship of these photos as your own original work.
Boris’s videos are very good and he knows his stuff, but I haven’t seen the video that inspired your edit. I personally use contrast equalizer for some denoising but I don’t use it for contrast myself. I am not saying it shouldn’t be used and it may be my bad for not using it that way. But here is my edit without contrast equalizer. Tag @ryanbreitkreutz - Free files from @signatureeditsco DSC02200.ARW.xmp (14.4 KB)
