Yesterday I visited Mount Royal and took some shots from the Kondiaronk lookout. I ended up taking quite a few pics and here are the first batch that I managed to get to play a little with in Lightroom.
The first shot was developed using Trey Ratcliff’s preset Dramatic Chippy as the jumping off point, then converted to Black and White with some changes in temperature and the odd other tweak here and there. I quite like this look and one day may get around to actually saving it as a preset to save me a little work in the future.
The 3 Towers
ISO 100 – 75mm – f10 – 1/160 sec
I’m not totally sure on this next one. I played around with the split tone and color balance setting in Lightroom to emphasize the green of Mount Royal in contrast to the urban cityscape below.
Urban Oasis
ISO 100 – 14mm – f8 – 1/160 sec (-2ev/0/+2ev)
After the storm on Saturday, the air was really clear, giving a good view into the distance.
View towards Nun’s Island ISO 100 – 70mm – f5.6 – 1/250 sec
Another play with the split toning settings in Lightroom…
Looking down rue de la Montagne
ISO 100 – 70mm – f5.6 – 1/320 sec
Another view into the distance, this time out toward the Jacques Cartier bridge.
View out to the East
ISO 100 – 70mm – f5.6 – 1/250 sec
I’ll be sharing the rest of the pics from my Mount Royal trip tomorrow.
Thanks for stopping by.
