I woke up early yesterday to capture the sunrise, but it was boring. A while later I got to see what I thought was a fantastic sky, with the sky reflected in the pond, and a row of trees across the middle. I got an exposure from the Leica that “felt” right, and spend between two and three hours in PL4 trying to make it look the way I wanted, but the trees are black, and I wanted to make them dark green.
Histogram was adjusted for no clipping.
All non-needed adjustments are turned off.
Everything I tried to do made the trees look “muddy”.
I finally gave up, and left it like this.
I still like the photo, but I think I’d like it more if the trees and shrubbery were a very dark green color…
Maybe I should quit while I’m ahead?
