The embedded image is a small jpg of the raw, but use the download dng files for rework.

Here is my attempt at this image. I believe it's intended to be low key so I endeavored to keep it that way.

Nice take on it Ben. I am on the road heading first to Sedona to see Doug, but I will see if I can get an edit in.

BTW, I was thinking this was more high key? Unless I am confusing my keys.

Here is my take.

I sure like the blue feel in your version Jameel.

I did not know high key from low key so I looked it up and low key means subtle, understated. Maybe that's not what photographic low key is.

I went a little darker.

I like that Rick, it seems a bit closer to reality I think.

Morning from a rainy, at last, Cumbria. If anyone is interested I have posted a short article on high and low key but people shouldn't get hung up on a name, this version is high key. At camera club talks I use this image as an example of processing expose to the right images that are very low in contrast and how increasing the contrast increases the saturation. This is my take on the image. Ken

 

[Ben Egbert]

Good one Ken, and thanks for the clarification on high versus low key. I think the definition I had was not related to photography.

This is neat. Wish I had time to play.

Would love to see your version, it only takes a few minutes.
