The file I chose to work on this past week was a continuation of and a revisit of work I have done in the past. The file under construction is this one:
An older edit can be found here. Recently, I posted about using sliders that I don’t often use and this edit is a continuation of me working on using them. The resulting edit is this one:
Prior to conversion to black and white, I used the custom white balance, luminance, dehaze, and polarize filters. It’s then converted to black and white with a red filter. The matte look and Orton effect filters have been applied and it has two vignettes applied to it.
A lot of filters but I am pleased with this edit, for now. The photo was taken a few years ago from the grounds of the Monte Cassino Polish war cemetery and is a shot of the nearby Monte Cassino AbbeyĀ It was a day trip from Rome, and a memorable day from a fabulous holiday.
Your comments or questions are most welcome below. This post was inspired by the Lens-Artists Photo Challenge which has the theme Special Spots Shots for this week.
Cheers!
Beautiful imagery.

Thanks very much Amy. It was interesting to me how the red filter looked so much nicer than the other filters.

I like the black and white, or kind of a metallic look. It gives it personality and some feeling to it. I am just learning to edit through Lightroom. I have a lot to learn. Nice picture š

Lightroom has a lot to it, lots of options and so a pretty big learning curve. I started with Adobe products, so I know you can get quality results.
