:heart: this one... yet to figure out why but probably has to do with the four layers of different patterns/colours and the Vidal Sassoon silky smooth sea.

::edit:: five, if consider the horizon which has not been cloned out. I like!

Most prob I'll prefer the color one but I'm color biased anyway ;p​

Hey Marc, thank you for visiting and glad you like it.

Well, I had to rework tis piece due to the posterization as highlighted by EM; as I really like the composition on it.

Yep, u are right bout the location. Fine weekend ahead.

Hi Thomas,

If you don't mind can you help to explain further what rework u perform to overcome the posterization ?
I have the same problem in most of my long exposure image with ND filter, but I'm not sure how to fix that.
Sorry for the nob question

Thanks,

Mario

Hello Mario,

To avoid the posterization issue, first you need to achieve sufficient and correct exposure during the LE.

If not, then by correcting the exposure in ACR/PS and boosting the contrast will normally introduce posterization or banding issue.

It is not that obvious in Color but in B&W, it is easily seen.

Thus, for my case, I had do many layering with Dodging the midtones, shadows and highlights with completing it with reducing the contrast while playing with levelling to get the right contrast on the kerb.

All this has been reviewed many times by zooming in and out the image to ensure no such problem arise.

A very tedious work but worth to salvage and all this may result in losing some of the originality.

Hope it helps.

Cheers,
Thomas
