    Thanks, and it’s so easy! With a few simple steps and the know how of
    editing you can seriously improve dull shots.

    Thanks, with regards to the Halo effect, I tend not to worry about a slight
    halo against cloudy skies, as it can often blend in and be overlooked, my
    pet hate is over powering HDR images with the subject against a blue or
    plain background with a monstrous white halo. I’d rather the slight halo
    than to dismiss an image as beyond hope, and would urge others to play
    around with something they would normally scrap. Thanks for watching I’m
    glad you’ve learned something new 🙂

    Interesting. I’ve never seen that approach before of cranking the contrast
    all the way up, then working the other sliders to bring detail back into
    the image. It worked; you got a pretty good result overall. I learned a new
    technique to try! The only negative effect I saw was that when you cranked
    the clarity all the way up, it accentuated the halo on the horizon a bit
    too much for my taste. Thanks for this video.
