Started editing photos from the Frozen One series again. I really like contrast so an overcast day on a frozen lake is a bit of a nightmare. However, the detail to bring shadows out is there on the sensor, but getting contrast out of ice without making everything looking like star trek is kinda hard sometimes. It’s been fun so far though.

Right now one of the things I’ve been doing on this series is making exorbitantly S-curved curves layers with a bias to the dark, then going to Image > Shadows/Highlights and using that tool along with masks to bring details back (both in the dark and bright regions).
