Let the sunshine get cold

I was out this weekend taking some shots by the coast. The sun was just about to go down this lovely evening. Some people think a photo should remain untouched when it’s been taken. I agree sometimes, but most of the time I believe some touch-up will make the photo much better. This time I wanted to make the photo look “colder” than it’s original. After a couple of minutes I got this result which is a bit surrealistic but eye-catching, don’t you think? :-) Read more

Intensify your blue heaven

It’s a new week and why not start it with a preset? Today I was looking at some pictures from my last vacation in Firenze (Italy) 2008. From the hotel room I took some photos of the environment outside. There were lots of roofs and a blue sky out there.

Every time I start playing around in Lightroom with some photos, I notice they all can be improved in some way. This time one of my photos looked a bit faded and had a dull sky and an overall gray feeling. So I created this new preset that I call “PH Intensive Heaven“, but as you can see it intensify more than just the blue colors. Try it yourself, you might like it! :-) Read more
