I'm not so much concerned with the artistic value of this shot, but rather with the adjustments that I had to make to it. I had to try like the dickens to get this thing looking somewhat decent...curves, hue/saturation, shadow/highlight, in addition to the RAW adjustments. Adjust one thing, and the sky gets washed out...Adjust another, the ground is too dark...ugh. I realize that the original was a pretty bad shot, but I didn't have my Grad ND with me at the time, and the light was really crappy...But what do you all find is the best process for these stubborn photos?
