>>3720546To that looks like good contrast from shadows to midtones with highlights being low contrast and low in separation. What Im thinking is large separation in highlights, so the highlights take up a good chunk or even most of the curve, and an upswept curve to increase separation and as much local contrast as I can get
>>3720555Certainly contrasty, but to me it still looks like the highlights are placed very high with low contrast among the highlights. like the texture of your cement is very close to all being the same tone and almost no difference between the clouds and sky, I guess that can subject dependent, weather etc.
Pic related is a photo I stole of flickr and edited, Id like to do it in processing/film instead of editing. And hopefully with some developer trickery the shadows wont black out as much as my edit etc but the local bright areas of the shadows will suck up more developer than adjacent areas and brighten up.
>>3720562Should be pretty sharp if this is anything to go by
