Flying Recovery

This is going to be pretty quick as I have been getting hammered this week in a development project we have going on. So here we go!

When you take photos from aircraft there is always a certain level of haze in the atmosphere caused by our activity. Sometimes a good rain will clear it out for a few hours but that is not often the case. So how do we get results like the one below.

We really don't cheat but a few sliders in Lightroom really do help out. The photo was of the mountain range in the San Bernardino National Forest. Below are the sliders in Lightroom to recover the image to how it looked to me at the moment.

Full disclosure time. I did use the localized adjustment brush to boost the snow on the mountains by 1/3 of a stop but is does look nice. Here was the before image.

That's going to cover it for today so have a great Friday and abetter weekend.
