Post-Processing Post Processing Challege #409 - Addo

**noelcmn** · 03-21-2022, 02:40 AM

Thanks to Broadside, for hosting and choosing my submission as the winner of PP # 408.

For this edition of the Challenge, I a chose an image from my last visit to Addo Elephant National Park. I hope you have fun with it.

Contest will end Sunday 27th March.

You can download the file here: File sharing and storage made simple

And my apologies, I very seldom shoot Raw/DNG, so you will have to work with the JPEG on this one.

Good luck

Had some trouble with the file opening in DXO. Solution run ... Imports straight into Silver Efex and saves in Paint as jpeg to import to DXO and LR for cropping and tonal tweaks.
My B&W version.

Ive been lurking here so long that its hard for me to believe Ive never made a post here at PF. So...I guess my first post will be taking a shot at this! Imported into Lightroom for a quick edit

here's mine

Challenge closed, thanks all for your submissions. I think all will agree, this is a rather difficult image to work with, the underexposure quite a hamper. I thought it would require a BtW conversion, and for that we only have 1 submission , and which I am choosing as the winner, Cindy, it's over to you for the next challenge. Kerrowdown's soft & gentle gets 2nd spot!

My version
