I’m in heaven

April 7, 2009

puffballs2

Presets Heaven, that is.  I mentioned yesterday that I’d be posting more of the puffball images, but I wanted to give it a different look this time, so I played around with various Lightroom presets.  The one used here was from Presets Heaven’s For Weddings set, using the Normal Skin preset.  Something wild is in store for tomorrow!

    This is an interesting variation with the same subject. I like the desaturated look of today’s … a bit more subtle. It will be fun to see further changes.

    Lovely effect from this preset, excellent DOF and the warm colors create a very appealing composition. Stunning work Toni.

    The image goes great with your logo-header too. It’s magnificent, warm – really like it.

    THanks too for PRESET HEAVEN! I watch some of the tutorials & found the soften skin tool fast & easy. I was dreading having to go into CS3 to work on skin – But no longer an issue.

    I love the soft, dreamy look this pre-set provided. I’m addicted to Lightroom presets. They are life savers!

    My favourite presets are from Preset Heaven. I use them a lot including the variety of ones from “for Weddings”. In fact, the photo I posted to Flickr today was done with one of their presets.

    Beautifully composed, but the colors are really exceptional. Sounds interesting how you achieved it.

    My problem is remembering what Presets I have installed. I regularly forget to use them (but I have them!!).

    WOW! Love the effect. What are ‘presets’..if you don’t mind my asking? Are they only available in lightroom..or am I missing something in photoshop? At any rate – great what you’ve done with this image.

    great job of processing. I am planning to take so holiday leave from work in the next few months. I am going to stay home and make one of my goals to google for presets.

    This is such a beautiful composition Toni. The bokeh really brings out the detail in the foliage. It’s cool how the frame points left…nice work.

    Marcie,

    Lightroom presets are like actions in Photoshop, they just don’t involve layers.
