    Default A new preset for Lr 3 - your opinions please



    decided to try something a little different in Lr 3, this preset crops to a medium format ratio and pushes the "look" - what's your opinion on it?

    The lens flare is real, not added - consequence of shooting up while lying on your belly.

    I think the comp here is well done.

    This preset isn't doing it for me, but in general I don't like presests that drastically change the way the image looks. (most presets)
    This shot might also look great in BW.

    Thanks for the honest feedback Marko. I forgot to add this is a preset that I am working on/developing, not one that I have downloaded.
    My goal was to have the framing and processing push the point of focus at you - "kinda in your face".

    In that respect it works very well, and of course feel free to ignore my opinion lol, you are the master of your shot, I just add my cents when asked for it.
