Wisp of Clouds Over Devils Tower National Monument
A parking lot view from the Visitor Center area just before I headed out to enjoy a hike and stroll along the Red Beds Trial. Not wanting to lose any highlights in the clouds above, I metered on that but later found the shadowed forest area too dark to really process in Capture NX2 without a strong color cast and loss of details. I decided to use Aurora HDR Pro to bring out an initial image to work with. I could then export that and work with color control points and a saved batch recipe of CEP filters for the final image.
