One of my comments asked if my photo was HDR. It is not, due to Basic Editing rules, but I achieved a similar look (somewhat accidentally) using the Shadows/Highlights and Saturation functions in Photoshop Elements 6. I wasn't necessarily after a tone-mapped look, but my image had a lot of contrast due to overcast sky and dark subject.


I don't think you're the only one suffering due to taking pics on an over cast day and then trying to make the best of it with a bit of post processing.


I suspect I may be suffering too as I think my entry has that 'look' also. Shadows, Highlights and Saturation produces similar results. I don't even have Photomatrix.

Remember that Basic editing is tool-based, whereas advanced editing is result-based. R.


Not so true - if you use a legal tool to create "an effect" in basic editing - ker-pow.
