>>2993180I know, that's why I aknowledged the blown highlights in my post.
I already went pretty far to recover them, but the smoke starts to look really bad, it's just bad exposure from the start, here's with the highlights pushed all the way to the back.
>>2993196 (image limit)It's a pretty frustrating one too, that village looked pretty dope with the morning sun, the smoke and the low fog, but I just couldn't find a clear angle, I drove three times through the whole place, but there was too many houses and crap, I ended up shooting from that backyard fence, but I just wasn't happy with it, probably why I didn't try any harder, either on the spot or in post.
Anyway, thanks for taking interest.
