Side Note: In this series I edit one of my images on a weekly basis (and in different editing programs) in order to share my post production workflow and process as a photographer. Read the original post that kicked off the series (and with more background info), here.
Learning as I go along and sharing the stoke.
Let's go!
For this week’s edit, I am editing a landscape image in Capture One Pro.
It was captured in Namibia, at the world famous Deadvlei, while co-leading a photography workshop back in 2017.
While everyone photographed the petrified trees, I decided to take out the longer lens and compose some images of the surrounding dunes - well worth it!
