between these two versions of a shot I took at the local Art College exhibition.
SWMBO (amongst her many other talents) does a bit of enamelling on copper and silver and has been attending a series of evening sessions at the Bristol College of Art where she has been concentrating on cloisonne.
The College is holding its exhibition of student work and SWMBO had some pieces on show.
I took my camera, not really expecting to get anything worthwhile, since I knew the items would be in glass cabinets to foil the light-fingered and I expected (and got) lots of reflections etc when trying to photograph the pieces, as the first (awful) example below shows.
But what a difference in the second version of the same image - and the trick? Just whack the dehaze slider over to the right in LR. Bingo!!
The original version.
