Workshop Note
Beautiful shot against the sky,
but the white scales of that butterfly reflected too much light from the flash and look overexposed, some details of the wings such as the veins have been swallowed.
Tried to fix that in Photoshop Elements.
1. Backlight adjustment: -100
2. Luminance and contrast:
luminance - 26
contrast + 16.
I think that a bit more details can be seen on the butterfly now. Hope you enjoy it.
Thanks and regards,
Peter
