December in Tamasopo is not like any winter we’d imagine. But it’s truly magical. These lush jungles of east-central Mexico are safe and easy to access but little known.
I made this video as I shot here, not knowing what I would get and today we’ll talk about the techniques I use to make the light come alive and do beautiful places like this justice.
So here’s a before/after of my favorite image I processed with the new Natural HDR 3 Presets for LR, PS and C1 to bring out the dynamic range without losing the richness of beauty of the shadows. Whether you use NHDR or not, remember that dynamic range is about the mix of light and show. Now about mid-tones. I’ll try to do a video on this soon.
