Kylie on the rocks
Added 2023-11-12 15:00:01 +0000 UTCMore daylight here as the days are getting shorter on the northern hemisphere:
This is Kylie LeBeau from a canyon in Nevada. I’m totally in love with the first one, but the second one also creeps up on me, but it’s not quite right in the edit. But I can’t figure out what to do to make it better.
Any ideas?

It would inverse reality, which is not my thing. And it is really hard to do so it looks realistic.

2023-11-15 20:22:20 +0000 UTCThere is, but the conundrum on this one is if I darken the background, the model will not have separation from the background, and the model have a near-full tonal range. If I boost the contrast on the background, it will compete with the model, if I lower it, the image becomes more dull. I can lighten and make the background more flat, but then it looks unnatural. But I do think that is the general direction. Or perhaps it's just one of the images that does not work well in Mono.

2023-11-14 23:07:49 +0000 UTCI think I may have found a way, for me anyway!
