geoflewis Posted December 11, 2022 Share Posted December 11, 2022 That's really good Craig. I also like the colour, which is very similar to what I see folks like Damian Peach, Martin Lewis and others posting. I think I've messed up the histogram sliders with new my colour camera, as my images are comong out a bit too red/pink. I've had a discussion with Martin Lewis about it and done a bit of background reading, so now I think I was wrong to try to set the balance on Mars and probably should have left the sliders alone.

Hey ho..... Thanks Geof. I don’t usually adjust the colour at all at capture I do it all in post. Must admit I spent quite a bit of time fiddling with the Hue and saturation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had a another go at cloning away the edge rind which has worked a bit better than my first go. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
