In this video I re-work an image from my last film to try and improve on my previous versions. I still can't decide which I prefer and I now have too many choices. Does anyone else have this trouble?

Best wishes for a quick recovery!! I personally like the third processing example. They all look nice, but that last one is my favorite.

@carlarivas1238 5 месяцев назад

Here is to your speedy recovery Simon. Thanks for sharing your editing techniques with us. Truly appreciated. Carla

Great to see you looking well! Heal quickly 😊

@jeffreyhofmeister3103 5 месяцев назад

I agree this is an excellent video of how you go about doing your processes. I really enjoy watching your video's, and after watching the video. I try and take that inspiration you presented to me and go out and about looking for subjects. Thank you for all your time and efforts in creating these video's.

@grantnewton5705 5 месяцев назад

Simon, wishing you a speedy recovery - take care! My preference is the third one

@johnhonnry1149 5 месяцев назад

Great stuff. Latest version is spot on

@ralfkrahe2493 5 месяцев назад

All 3 versions are very nice but today’s edit is the perfect mix for me. Stunning! All the best for a speedy and complete recovery.

@jeffstraw466 5 месяцев назад

I prefer the original RU-vid version. Great video. Thanks

@gary.kenyon 5 месяцев назад

All the best for a speedy recovery. Thanks for showing us your processing. I learnt a lot 🙂 great shots.

@hassanscottodierno9284 5 месяцев назад

Hope you feel better soon. Love the huge map. Mine has pins where I want to go.

@tompetersphotography 5 месяцев назад

I think the latest version buddy, totally get your rethink. Really hope you recover quickly buddy

@dietervoegelin5890 5 месяцев назад

First of all I wish you a speedy recovery, you really belong out of the house in nature. I prefer the “todays edit”.

@bettinabauch6688 5 месяцев назад

Hope ypu get well, soon! I liked version 1 for the soft colours.

@altrujillo3566 5 месяцев назад

Beautiful image in all its iterations but I prefer today's best. Hope you are on the mend and get better. All my best.

@alwynwilliams2661 5 месяцев назад

Excellent video, I could really watch more of your methods of processing. All 3 images are good but the last one I wouls put on the wall.

@siofna9709 5 месяцев назад

Hello Simon All three versions of this looks good and it is a matter of taste which one is the favorite. Know this problem very well. You process an image and think it is well done and a days late you see ist again and think "oh my god". Then you start processing again :-). Best wishes for recovering. Grt Ernesto

@alanevans9246 5 месяцев назад

Simon, trust you are mending well…Tough getting older😊. Great video, I agree your final edit is the best out of the 3. Get healthy and looking forward when you can go out and start snapping once again..

@finnkoustrup6162 5 месяцев назад

Good to see you back on your feet really good editing video, looking forward to more good videos from you

@kenharnish5778 5 месяцев назад

I can’t tell which one is best. But they are all great, it is a great image. Heal up, and get some more great images!

@badgerlandcouk 5 месяцев назад

Good to hear you have your health issues are improving - hope you get fully up-to-speed soon. Great to see how you do the edits to an image; and how, like the rest of us, you are often looking afresh at an edit to see if their is a more preferred version. My preference is 100% for the later version, although I'd still be chuffed with the original RAW version or the older edits.

@mervroberts5134 5 месяцев назад

G’day Simon, glad to hear that you are on the mend and be out taking photos again soon. I prefer the last version over the youtube version as I think the top right was too blue. In the colour mixer panel, I prefer to use the point colour as you can be more selective in the colour you choose to edit, use the visualize range so that you can see exactly what will be affected and have the hue,saturation and luminance sliders all together. I will have to study your photoshop sharpening video as that seems a lot more acurate way to sharpen. Excellent video by the way. Cheers, Merv

@robertbein9574 5 месяцев назад

Also, I agree that the final edit is the nicest. I agree that the first version was a little too blue and not enough contrast between the green and the orange.

@johnpollock6996 5 месяцев назад

Thanks for another great video Simon. To me, it is much easier to pick the least excellent version than the most. Version 1 gets last place. I can go either way on the other two. If you get stressed editing, you hide it quite well. I know I get that way often at the computer slogging through LR and PS. Get well soon.

@Mike-su4qr 5 месяцев назад

Great video Simon! IMHO I like the edit you did in this video best. The You Tube version has a bit too much blue in the upper right, and process version 1 needed a bit more contrast. Thanks for the lessons on gradients! Very helpful

@garystone6583 5 месяцев назад

Hope you get well sooner than later Simon. Great video on how you process the images you take. 👌

@ihavevitiligo 5 месяцев назад

Call me crazy, and you wouldnt be the first, but I liked the raw version. I just looked again before finishing the comment. Yeah, the raw state is beautiful. Nothing wrong with the edits, but to my taste, the raw version is where its at. Well done!

@SimonBoothPhotography 5 месяцев назад

Gosh! It does nothing for me. How different we all are eh

@ilyanazarenko3330 5 месяцев назад

Very good processing. I liked the way it was processed in this video best. The only thing was I did not like much that blue tone to the fog on the right side (background), but it is a personal choice of course. You are the artist and it was your choice. Otherwise, very nice!

@robertbein9574 5 месяцев назад

Well done Simon. Once again you bring balance to photography, in this case to editing. Glad to hear you are feeling better. Keep up the good work!

@wolfgangmarvelous7239 5 месяцев назад

Beautiful photo. I believe I prefer Version 1. Have a speedy recovery.

@christopherhawkes5669 5 месяцев назад

Thanks Simon. I can only echo all of the other comments. Take care

@SimonBoothPhotography 5 месяцев назад

Cheers Chris.

@windleman1 5 месяцев назад

They are all great when looked at individually, but when they are side by side I think the last edit is the most. It's the most natural whilst still being dramatic.

@mikebyrne8420 5 месяцев назад

I prefer Today's Edit though it is a beautiful scene regardless of how it is edited. All the best on your recovery.

@davidhuth5659 5 месяцев назад

The third time is the charm!! Well done!

@bluemarf1 5 месяцев назад

I try to do as little processing as possible. That way madness lies and I think your title sums it up. I wouldn't know where to start with Lightroom/Photoshop so the free software I use is perfect for me and my skill level. Having said all that the quality of your final images clearly justifies a little professional finessing to get the very best out of your magnificent shots. Couldn't choose between today's images. The differences are too subtle.

@RichB-js8ct 5 месяцев назад

Glad you are on the mend!

@tTLM823 5 месяцев назад

Fantastic video as always, Simon! Thanks for this.

@tonyutting6508 5 месяцев назад

They are all nice, but the last one for me. I actually prefer the original to the RU-vid version too, as the RU-vid version is a bit blue

@glynparry6598 5 месяцев назад

Nice job Simon. Get better soon.

@barrybridgeford530 5 месяцев назад

Atmosphere and mood sure are open to interpretation. Even back in the old film days, we could take numerous exposures .. with any number of 'color-correction' filters over the lens and call the results 'creative interpretation' .. just as we do these days with PS. Long live 'artistic initiative' !

@davebenson1504 5 месяцев назад

Good morning Simon... from Winnipeg, Manitoba... on the Canadian prairies... located right behind the middle of you head on the map in the opening frames 🙂

@SimonBoothPhotography 5 месяцев назад

It sounds lovely Dave.

@rogersedgbeer 5 месяцев назад

All very good Simon, but todays edit is the one for me.

@gordonmacdonald8756 5 месяцев назад

Sadly after all your hard work I think I prefer version one. Version 3 looks too blue on the right for me. Sometimes less is more.

@JohnDrummondPhoto 5 месяцев назад

Operations are a drag! Feel better soon.

@rodredhead2405 5 месяцев назад

Hope you get well soon Simon. It would be nice to run across you again in padley gorge. Rodders 👍

@noelmasterson3646 5 месяцев назад

hope you make a speedy recovery Simon. Version 3 for me

@nickbailey9038 5 месяцев назад

I'm not sure about the darkening of the bark on the middle tree that's caused by the radial filter. The bark is darker at the top of the tree than at the bottom. In theory, it should be the opposite way around. Overall, I like 'today's edit' most

@danrdgreen 5 месяцев назад

I am leaning towards the original I think, all 3 are very good though.

@duringthemeanwhilst 5 месяцев назад

I wouldn't have touched the original Simon. sometimes we're all guilty of thinking we must do something to a raw file. but especially with that MF sensor often they're good enough straight out of the camera 🙂

@anthonyventimiglia4157 5 месяцев назад

What looks good on a computer screen may not be the best for print output., and that is what I shoot for in the final results. i only print in rag mat paper which may cost on depth, nevertheless, the results overall are what I desire. It appears to me that these images would have to be brighter to record the detail separations for print output. Can you comment?

@SimonBoothPhotography 5 месяцев назад

Hi Anthony I don’t print at home, as although id love to. I just don’t have the space. However, I would normally adjust the brightness prior to sending to an external printer. I have those print profiles stored on my system.
