Do you use the Capture One color Editor in your processing?

  Hi Monica,
  
  Occasionally, yes. For example, the Oshin Koshin Falls shot above had a lot of brown in the ice behind the flowing water, and I used the Advanced Color Editor to select that brown and desaturate it a little.
  
  I do also sometimes make the feet of the eagles a little more orange when the light isn’t so good, but I didn’t do that with any of the images in this post.
  
  Regards,
  Martin.
