Nice shot mate. HDR can be tricky, especially with a lot of plant life around. It takes time to find the right settings sometimes. I usually crank down the saturation a bit to prevent the 'overcooked' look you can get in HDR, and in an overly 'green' setting like this you want to lower the saturation of the yellow color slider in lightroom. I know it sounds counter intuitive, but there is a lot of yellow in leaves and grass when doing an hdr. give it a try :)
One issue with shooting in HDR is the fact that it takes 3 imagines, one under exposed, one of "correct" exposure and one over exposed! None the less here I the "correct" exposure image.
Love the pic, the grey sky look haunting!
Thank you, its my ex in the photo, so maybe its not a bad thing 🤣

Thanks for the advice mate! Ill definitely give that one a try!
Have a great day!
No problem! Be sure to share your results with us :)
It's great that you have uploaded edited version, but would love to see it unedited i.e. natural colours. I always upload unedited pictures of mine.

Great
Beautiful greenery and grey skies , it looks like a canvas drawing rather than a picture.
Thank you! Its a problem with HDR, its very difficult aiming for that effect without going overboard and loosing the image itself!
i see, however i think in this picture that the image havent been lost.
Wow, this picture is freaking awesome. I can see that you manipulate Light room very well. Good job @longfield98 , keep it up with the great work.
Thank you very much, I appreciate the kind words and support!

Say what? :D Where did you get an 80D? lol.
Would love to try that thing.
Keep it up boss! You are getting momentum. It's only going to become great from here. Let's go my bro!
Talk soon.
Give it a try if you are ever down at Breede! Probably 6 DSLR's in the house
