Re: Sunrise over Roscoff

Kevin, very nice sunset, with John's reworked edit really making the most of it. Great combined effort.

A lovely image that I wouldn't process any further

I concede my style of processing can emphasise the vibrancy a touch so here's a reworked version that isn't quite as in your face (although with such great colour in the sky it was never going to be subtle ):

I did find that just taking the highlights down and shadow up left it still too flat so I had to tweak some other setting too although working from the RAW file may see that improve.

Cheers,
John

Now i'm really liking that one, I'll send you the raw

Re: Sunrise over Roscoff

Kevin, I forgot to say that I thought it an excellent shot to start with and just needed a touch of work

I've been through Roscoff many times but, like most people I suppose, usually head off up the hill bypassing the town. Only once, while waiting for a ferry, was I able to walk into the town and it really is very pretty - such a shame all the restaurants had closed at 9pm and a hot dog back at the port was all I could find

Cheers,
John

Thanks John, I always encourage everyone who tells me they are doing a Plymouth to Roscoff crossing to make the time to at least look around, been visiting multiple times are year for over 15 years and never get bored of the place

Re: Sunrise over Roscoff

I really like the original. I am never sure why everyone wants to lift all the shadows on a photograph like that. I am a bit contrarian in that way! I might have made it pop with a few little tweaks with curves in PS, but not a lot!
