LR original on left, Nik Collection on right (the color one). Chose soft focus and a vignette, and something else...Problem with Nik is I don't have the running list of what I did. What was already out of focus turned into a nice storyline I think. I can see how I might need to add a tad bit more light in. Maybe. See full image here: http://365project.org/darylo/album5
When you're in Nik look on the bottom left, and there is a "History" tab. When you click on it, you'll get a list of what you did. I'd be tempted to try a tad bit of light...or maybe lessen the vignette just a bit? It's a great image!
@tracys I see it there but once I import back to LR, I never see it. Still haven't really figured out what I'm doing in my sandbox! But so far liking the options in Nik.
At first look I agreed with the others that it was a bit too dark but the longer I look at it I think I like the second better. It has an air of reverence about it in the darker tones.
@grammyn The full version (same as on right) is on another album page. I'm just trying to show the before edit and Nik edits--I think Nik does a nice job on what was an otherwise bland shot.
