This is from Revine Lago, a place not far from Treviso, is a small norther italy town overlooking this lake. The whole area around the lake is not very easy to walk and it was not easy to find a place to shoot, the entire lake tour was in fact filled with bumps or crowded boats that did not make life easy
Fortunately I found this little glimpse but I needed a subject for my composition, so I take this big leaf near the water and I put it in front of me. The wind that was present that day, among other things, moved the leaf away from me so I was all time adjusting it with a branch to not to let it go 🙂
WORKFLOW EXPLANATION
I take several exposures but when I start editing I decided to use only one, the wind it was moving the leaf and the tree so it has been really difficult to blend the exposures. I decided to use luminosity masks applied to one single exposure to reduce lights in the sky and add contrast in the foreground
With TTS Fast Panel I launched high details, sharpen and dodge and burn with I pushed up light in the leaf and fixed luminosity in the mountain. I applied a yellow photo filter to enchance yellows and better mix the blue hour, I made some color adjustment to reduce a too strong blue in the sky using luminosity masks applied to hue/saturation
As usual I hope you will find this usefull. Your feedback is always welcome!
