Rough Fire

Hikin' Mike

I haven't touched my camera in months. Last weekend we had to pick up my oldest daughter at Hume Lake. While we were there I got a few photos of the "Rough Fire". Still going through the photos, but thought I'd post this one.

It's painful to see but it's a fine photo. Pick up the camera more often!

Thanks and I'm trying.

The fire is such a destructive force, yet an amazing thing of fearsome beauty. Great image. Thanks for sharing.

Nice! Bit grainy, but probably that's the intent.

No, it is grainy. I don't like it and I think I'm going to re-process it.

Dealing with Milky Way Noise......I have found that in LR, under details panel, the "Luminance" and "Color" and "smoothness" sliders moved to the right really help with smoothing things out and also using much less details and sharpness....you probably know many powerful ways.....but that is what I have been getting by with! Cheers!

I don't have LR and I'm still using CS2. Occasionally I use DPP for their noise reduction. I must have missed this one.
