Even in Kyoto—
hearing the cuckoo’s cry—
I long for Kyoto.
the cuckoo’s cry

lens-artists: bringing softness
The above autumn image was a raw photograph created in Fujifilm X-T4 with a film simulation recipe, Retro Red.*
Within Capture One 23, I did a bit of light and shadow adjustment, cropped and removed some leaves, and set clarity at 2.
The image on the left was further edited with a Capture One preset, DF-03-Arapaho (bright).
I then hopped over to Color Efex 4 Pro and added a glamour glow layer to create a light softness to the image.
This week Bren invites photographers to explore editing softness into their creative work. I hope you enjoy.
