Tree, lights and clouds

I modified filmic rgb and local contrast 1. To take out more contrast of the trunk and branches from this point requires open-heart surgery.

Edit: Actually, there is one easy change: turn off filmic altogether. I like the result even better.

And a little work on exposure.

Edit 2: When you look at the perfect glow of the sunlight across the fields and the marvelous clouds, this is Ansel Adams-like in capturing the right moment.

I meant as a general look. This was one of the motifs where it fits wonderfully.

I love seeing creative edits done based on my Play Raws. It’s always interesting to see what others come up with.
