>>2663208Ok so my picture won't upload b/c duplicates and I'm kind of over trying. I'm not talking about anything big, just boosting the exposure a bit and playing with the contrast a tad.
>>2662563This picture, for example: up the exposure a stop and try bumping the clarity a little, maybe drop the luminance in the blues a bit and desaturate the green before pushing the vibrancy a little bit. Often a single stop one way or the other makes all the difference.
When all the blacks are crushed it looks good, in my mind that should be reserved for scenes with strong light/dark contrast. This isn't one of them. Think of it this way: if you squint your eyes at the picture, can you still see what the picture is?
Also if someone else has an opinion on deep blacks as a function of the contrast of the scene as opposed to just a one-size-fits-all PP tool, chime in.
