I regularly expose for sky and pull up the shadows as well. But I'm having some
problems with adjusting my shots...
Sky: I find it difficult to see your shot without the foreground, though. When
just clouds, I'd be tempted to make them more over-the-top. I prefer the
foreground in the shot.
I have a lot of great sky here in AZ, other than when it is just blue. I am
always trying to find the best composition. Here is one example of me trying to
pull up the shadows:
Raw: https://photos.app.goo.gl/qcBSFi2fG4mgLAXN8
ACR: https://photos.app.goo.gl/4S5iDBJCZNrw3FRx7
Not too much adjustment, ACR auto. Sorry I don't have cool mouse over web
skills yet.
What I'm am wondering is, have the clouds become more blue with the adjustment?
Not sure how to adjust this properly. I don't have Kens high Color IQ.
As Chris T has said, we have had some cold rainy weather here in AZ. This was
shot Dec 25th after the sky was clearing before more cold rainy weather moved
in.
