Post-processing challenge for March 14 2020

No-one else has posted yet so here's one from me (of the Markthal in Rotterdam).

 

There are no rules as to how you apply your post processing to this image; but, please let us know what you have done so we can all learn.If you would like to post a candidate image next week, please ensure it is of sufficiently high resolution for manipulation by the participants (3000px on the long side, 300dpi for example).

 

Most of all, let's have fun while we are learning or demonstrating how we use our post-processing software, imaginations and interpretations.

Great image, Mike. I adjusted exposure in LR and added tonal contrast in NIK

PSE 14, adjust light shadows, straighten, small amount of poster edges.

Thank you for posting, Mike. I used Redfield Quad Pencil plugin followed by vibrance adjustments in ACR. Next a pass through SNS-HDR and back to PS for a leveling crop.

Brightened up the hall and added a different background.What I learned from this:

- how to create a 'radial 'B/W gradient' and copy this into a mask (for gradually increasing the effects of curves layers)

- how to select and remove by color (to give me the wire mesh on a separate layer)

Thanks for the challenge Mike. All adjustments in LR5. Crop and convert to mono, Dodge & Burn, Vignette, White points & Black points adj. Increased contrast with a S curve. Added split tone tint.

 

I must be getting hungry while editing this image.

If you can tell the group what adjustments have been made to arrive at your response. Some may be obvious but not all, it doesn't need to be an essay (ideally not an essay) :)

Great photo Mike. Interesting venue. Thanks for posting!

My primary goal was to lighten the foreground and emphasize that the light was reaching into the structure so we could see the details therein.

All done in LR. Shadows up, highlights down, and then a gradient from the bottom increasing the exposure +1 to zero. Straighten and crop and then a bit of lens correction to make some lines in the foreground appear parallel. Another crop to compensate for that correction and that's it.

I noticed the 2 fashion-conscious individuals on the left: their shoes coordinate with their pants and T-shirts, and the one fellow is really in tune with the awnings behind. My style choices are simpler...what still fits, doesn't have holes, and my wife will still go out with me wearing it ;-}

Rgb curves and channels.
