For Sliders Sunday.

I'd shot this a little wide so I could crop to the composition I wanted, with the A on a third and the wall it's on occupying two-thirds of frame. Then in Lr and Ps used sliders to warm up that wall, enhance the texturing a bit with Clarity, and cool down the right side. I most likely used in Lr, the black slider and white slider of the basic exposure module to enhance contrast. I think I used a gradient in Lr to so that I could boost saturation a little on just the right side, especially of blue. I might have also used the high pass filter in Ps on the warm side of the image, masking out all but the shaded part to again enhance texture. And I think I either used the adjustment brush in Lr and the exposure slider or created a dodge/burn layer in Ps to paint in burning of some of the shadows for greater contrast. I had played with this one a couple weeks ago so I'm not sure about everything I'd done. But I thought it'd be a good one for Sliders Sunday. Original in first comment box below. If it doesn't show, hit refresh a time or two. That worked for me at others' photos today.

 

HSS everyone!
