Hello,
I think all of us, will have to deal with cloudy photos occasionally, because normally when we travel, we book the ticket long time ahead, and when the day comes, and we arrive at our destination, the weather is not so nice. So we only have the choices between whether to take some dull and boring photos, or not taking any photo at all (of course some cloudy photo with intention and creativeness behind are different, I'm just not that good yet
)
Now, coming back from home, the question is, what can we do to make the most of of those photos? For example, I just came back from a short trip to Paris, and the weather was very grey, so every photo I took in daylight was grey (instead of looking great under sunset or sunrise).
I will upload a photo tonight when back from work.
I have both Lightroom and Photoshop, and what I can think of is only:
- Add more contrast
- Maybe dehaze a little bit
- Add some more color saturation (but this is tricky, as it can make the photo look fake)
- Maybe to change it to B&W if it still looks dull
And what about you? What would you normally do with cloudy and rainy photo (unplanned) that look so uninspiring?
Edit: okay, so I'll take one photo taken at Notre Dame, my favourite place in Paris, with a lot of cloud. I really want to learn how to improve photo like this (if there is a way).
