Here comes Lightroom preset number 274 of 365. This one is kind of a HDR preset but with a twist. It’s sharp as razor. It almost look painted when you take a closer look at the details. When dark areas are brighten up this way, noise tend to appear. In order to compensate for this we can use the “Noise Reduction” in Lightroom to remove some of it. It does a pretty decent job, but if you move the sliders to far, your details might suffer. In this case I wanted to have this smeared-out look so I didn’t care that much about the loss of details.
