What an Amazing View I Had That Morning in Big Bend National Park!
While walking the Lost Mine Trail and a view looking to the south-southeast toward Townsend Point and the mountainside slopping downward; that's what I wanted to capture in the same image. But there was also morning haze present that made me have to focus on metering properly to minimize blowing any highlights in the clouds or distant ridges. I did some initial post-processing work making adjustments to contrast, brightness and saturation while playing around as I learned how to work with NX Studio. I then exported a TIFF image to Nik Color Efex Pro 4 where I added a Polarization and Pro Contrast filter for that last effect on the image captured.
