This is Variation 2 of Los Banos. To create the sunset look of this variation, I replaced the sky. Then I edited exposure etc overall to enhance the sunset effect in the landscape. This variation was a lot of fun. I knew I wanted to try and create a sunset. Finding the right sky replacement – that would work with the landscape – was a task. Then, editing the landscape to go with the overall sunset effect was also challenging. I used Photoshop for the sky, and Luminar Neo for the rest.
What I really like about the One Four Challenge is that it creates the opportunity to learn new things, new techniques, and refine my editing skills. If you’re not already doing the One Four Challenge, join us!
Here is a gallery of the original and each variation.
Here is a side by side comparison of the original and variation 2.
Visit again next week to see another variation.
One Four Challenge
In the One Four Challenge, we select an original image and then explore different edits or interpretations on subsequent weeks. The One Four Challenge was started by Robyn G several years ago and is now revitalized by Leanne Cole and me. (We may see Robyn here from time to time.) We would love for others to join us in exploring our images. This challenge is beneficial as it encourages learning new techniques and pushing creative boundaries. And it’s fun! Remember to include the tag One Four so your work appears in the WordPress Reader for everyone to admire. I share my posts on Wednesdays in the Western Hemisphere, while Leanne shares hers on Thursdays in Australia and the Eastern Hemisphere. Join us!
