Honestly, Larry, almost nothing done in Lr. I did a tiny bit of mid-tone contrast with the Tone Curve (Lights -21; Darks +21), Clarity +30 (some compensation for being soft), NR: Lum 30, Detail 69; Lens Correction on; and that's it. I'd say the painterly look came from a happy confluence of the light in there which is almost all bounced off of the hanging art, the DA* 55 at f:1.4 which has a pleasant softness, plus ISO 1600 grain and a modest amount of NR which has an overall smoothing effect. Gotta remember that one. :-) Thank you, Larry. -- -bmw -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
