I had a CP with me on the trip to Colorado....but left it in the hotel. Used a "tulip hood" on my Canon T3I with a 10-18 Canon lens. I knew this area would give me the best shot....but it did not work out. Arrived late in day with sun in eyes. Criticize away. I wanted to put a couple of these on 20X30 canvas....but as of now will not. Any help from UH people on how to improve the sky and put the pictures on canvas. I've heard of "Photoshop." Would it help?

You will more than likely receive suggestions here in this section, but I suggest that you re-post this in the Post Processing Digital Images section of the forum. There are lots of experts there that I am sure could advise/help.

In order to get the most help, you would be better off by using the "store original" when and if you repost this topic elsewhere.

Good luck.

Post in the post processing forum and ask for help. Be sure to check "store original".

You will find Lightroom adequate and easier to use than Photoshop. But you get both in the Adobe package for $9.99/month. You might find first year offers for $7.99/month.

Even though these aren't hazy you might like what a little of the dehaze filter will do. Also reducing luminosity in the sky or using the graduated filter will do a little of what you wanted the CP for.

Unfortunately you can't duplicate the reflection elimination of a CP with post processing.

Took these pictures last week near Aspen, Colorado. Forgot my CP filter and as you can see was shooting into the sun. Can anything be done about the sky? I wanted to put these pictures on 20X30 canvas but don't know how to fix the blue sky beforehand. Help please.

Darkening of the highlights in white may help as well as or instead using color replacement in Photoshop.
Otherwise, very nice. I took mine there when there was more snow on the ground.

MacPhun software will improve picture overall and would allow you to substitute a more interesting sky.

Even thought the sky is rather bland, these are beautiful shots, illininitt!
