First outing of the year at the Heritage Railway in Cloverdale was a great success and a lot of fun. Thanks to Derek Hayes and John Sprung for arranging it and Elizabeth Green for arranging a great model, Roxanne Lewis.
If you have some shots from the outing, send two or three to Derek or Brian and we will arrange to show them at one of our meetings.
Normal club sizes and ensure your name is in the file name. eg: YourName-Title or YourName-Img34567
If you are looking for a hard to find lens, camera part etc. Send a description and it can be posted here. Include as much detail as possible about the item, and indicate if you want to purchase, trade or ? for it.
This is a demo of the Sky Replacement feature of the new Luminar 4 program.
These are older images of mine that I thought would provide an idea of what you can do with this new feature. All of the skys are some of the ones built into Luminar 4. You can also use any of your own images as “Skys”. You will find that you can use any image as a sky with interesting results, think “Altered Reality”
No adjustments were made to the images except Sky Replacement.
Original images on the left, modified with Sky Replacement on right.
