Lets Play 5-19-2018 - Factory Butte

This image would have possibilities with a more colorful sky. As it is, the color on the butte only lasted 30 seconds or so. But this is a good candidate for post processing. Easy DR, but you can change the luminance values and colors to taste.

Here is a SOOC jpg to show what it looks like, but be sure to download the larger DNG files in the link for editing.

Here is my attempt.

 

[Ben Egbert]

Thanks Jameel. I will refrain from comment until all entries are in.

 

[Kyle Jones]

OK, went a little crazy with this (otherwise, what's the fun in playing?!). I replaced the sky with a sunset from about the same direction and tweaked the foreground to try picking up that color. Erased some tracks in the foreground as well.

 

[Ben Egbert]

Thanks Kyle, I appreciate your joining the play.

 

[JimFox]

Hey Kyle, that is pretty cool! Definitely looks natural.

 

[JimFox]

Here is mine, with Kyle as my inspiration this is what I came up with. The sky is Ben's original, I just warmed up the whole image, added some contrast to the whole image, and then a bit of Saturation to the sky.

Thanks a lot for your participation guys, looks like this is starting to get some traction. I am off a bit on timing, but I wil try to get on track for the next go around.

 

[JimFox]

Yep, it's nice to see so many participating, hopefully we will get a few more.

Ok, fun time! Here's my version, with a liberal application of haze removal tool, a crop, selective burning & dodging, sharpening, and light slider adjustments. All in an attempt to keep it pretty natural.

Very nice Mike.

Ok, here is mine, I had this finished before the contest started so it is not influenced by the other entries. However, if I were to print it, I would take another look.

That's nice Ben. It would be interesting to see how you might process it differently after seeing other people's work. I know I can't help peeking at the work here by the others and then adjusting mine accordingly when I edit.

 

[Ben Egbert]

I would wait until the voting is done. I don't wish to influence the voting.
