    Default Three Benches

    Liked the way the sun was hitting these three benches at Deer Lakes Park, not far from my home in Pa.

    Did you do some burning to get the background so dark? Very moody.

    Hi Gary,
    yes, I did some burning on the top and side. Did a little dodging on the lighter tree after the burning in.

    I like the photo, but, although there are strong shadows the scene doesn't feel sunny, at least the colors are not.

    Never give up. You will never fail, but you may find a lot of ways that don't work.

    Very nice! Can you tell me which Xara's software you are using to work on this image?

    Welcome to TalkGraphics Shahtaj; tell us about your Photoshop work.

    The photo was posted in a Non-Xara forum so perhaps no Xara product was used. Are you after suggestions?.

    Hi Shahtaj, Welome.
    I use Lightroom 6.0 for processing my raw files.
