I had NIK Plugins in my back pocket when I decided to shoot the lotuses in the Kenilworth Aquatic Gardens in Washington D.C. But there is no way I’m dragging a lot of equipment to shoot nature photography – I can only make my sons carry so much! I’m there to enjoy the experience and be inspired, not weigh myself down with gadgets. I pack a backpack with a few lenses, a small light, and a tripod. Things like the weather are out of our hands and locations may be difficult to access. You have to give up a certain amount of control in nature photography.
Compensating for Harsh Light in Nature Photography NIK Plugins allows me to flex my creativity without all the fuss. For me, photography is a way to relax and get away from technical problems. You can even get adventurous and customize your own presets/recipes.
For me, buying NIK Plugins is worth every penny I’ve saved time-wise as well as providing satisfying final images. There are many good reasons to use presets in NIK Plugins. NIK Plugins just helps us execute it quickly and precisely. This emphasizes how a little goes a long way with this technology. I kept my adjustments localized, often only using two to four presets from NIK Plugins. I minimally edited (in Photoshop) some of the photographs included in this article. We, thankfully, can get creative without needing a whole darkroom. They certainly cropped, adjusted exposures, burned, and smudged like the rest of us to create their masterpieces. Honestly, you can’t convince me that Dorothea Lange or Ansel Adams wouldn’t use the best technology they could find if they were around today. Photography and editing go hand-in-hand nature photographers have been post-processing images since the first photographs were developed. We’ll explore the ways that only minor adjustments to lighting using these presets will help us achieve our artistic visions. NIK’s Color Efex and Viveza plugins to give us powerful tools to translate that inspiration into a polished fine art nature photo. It’s frustrating when the incredible scene we saw through the viewfinder doesn’t translate! When lighting is our most challenging hurdle, post-processing can give us the tools to be able to sculpt the image we envisioned. A waterfall that shimmered in the forest looked dull and gray, lost in the woodlands around it. How many times have you been excited to shoot a great location, then it felt like nothing looked good in Lightroom? An awe-inspiring vista transformed into a muddy blob against an overexposed foreground.
