processing workflow
I mainly use Lightroom and NIK ColorEFEX to tweak my photo’s. I will briefly explain how my workflow is at the moment.
I will not go in to much detail instead, you can download the presets at the bottom of this page.
The example picture is and 5 bracket HDR.
- create HDR in Lightroom. Then I apply my lenscorrection in Lightroom and correct the whitebalance if needed.
- next I will export the picture as a TIF to NIK COLOREFEX. Of course you can go via Photoshop to apply as a layer or smart layer or directly via edit in..).
I mainly use 3 presets in COLOR EXEF (Â you can download the presets below)
-white neutralizer if nessecary
-detail enhancer to bring out more details and to enhance the shadows as well as the highlights.
-procontrast to make some subtle corrections contrast wise
save and return to Lightroom
- Now I will make the toning corections as well as the other stuff such as presence tone curve and finally sharpening and noise reduction.
Presets used:
NIK_COROREFEX (white neutralizer/detail enhancer/pro-contrast)
EDB_Analogue (tone anhancement/precence/subtle Tonecurve with a matte feel/grain/dehaze/sharpening and noise reduction)
