Maybe nothing special, but used a few Photoshop creative filters and came up with this.

Well, as it turns out, it doesn't have the same color dynamics as it did in Photoshop. But I will send it anyway.

Seems kind of odd.

Well, when I downloaded it, it did look more like the Photoshop version. Mystery!

Download is definitely different. Much better.

Color space for the thumbnail is blank, "Uncalibrated" for the large.
(The UHH program creates the thumbnail from the original.)
What color space was it saved with?
sRGB works best for the web.

What does the Cinematic View do/mean?

It was saved with the prophoto rgb. It has been a while since I posted any pictures here, so I may have violated a standard by using the photoshop standard profile. Sorry. When I post to stock agencies I always use sRGB because they require it. That may have worked better here too. When I change the profile though, all the layers disappear, so I only change it as a last resort. I will try sRGB in the future.

Photoshop has numerous adjustment layer presets, and some are called cinematic. This is a combination of a few different adjustment layers. I was just trying to find something that was a little artistic. I don't know if anyone likes it or not. Just a picture of trees. Maybe I shouldn't have posted it. But I thought it was a little artistic, and wanted to see what people thought about it.

I edit in Adobe RGB, so when I post here I will make a Stamped layer at the top and do a Quick Export as PNG, which uses only that top layer, then I can assign an SRGB profile to that PNG to post. That preserves my layers and edits in the PSD file.

Thanks, TerryMc. I will play around with this and see what I can do.

I don't know exactly how it works, but it seems to intensify the colors. If you have photoshop you can look at their presets and see what happens when you run your mouse over the adjustment icons. There are several of them. A few landscape adjustments, a few monochrome, a few called creative, and there is an xray adjustment in there here and there. When you put your mouse on an adjustment icon, you can see the difference. I also have a number of presets from other companies, but I hardly ever use them.

I might add too, that you can use the opacity slider to lessen the effect, and the slider for changing the blending options to create even more effects.

The term cinematic might be, but they are presets which other companies create and use as well. I have presets in Lightroom from Photobacks. Maybe some others too. I don't have a super high level of competency in Photoshop, there is so much more, and people find things all the time, by putting things together in ways nobody thought about. If I had a high level of competency I probably wouldn't use presets, but they can be fun at times.

Suffices to say that particular term applies to Photoshop.
Therefore, those of us who don't use Photoshop are unaware of the connotation.
