Tyger, tyger (apologies to poet William Blake)

@Jean-Marc_Digne, I like this. When I have time, I will investigate your edit. :+1:

This needs some proper music to go along with it.

I adjusted the raw black points first, to de-bias the green glass.
Local adjustment spot on the face for some increased light. Other spots used to shore up excess chroma which was distracting from the subject.

Edit: I see now I left some highlights on the right out of whack.

Thanks for sharing, Bill. To my eyes (and on my monitor) - each of which have their own biases - the tiger still has too much of a greenish cast.

I agree, Martin. I’m still trying to figure that out.

The Survivor music video shows that it is completely fine to have colour casts. :stuck_out_tongue:
