RE: Street Photography on one of the TOP 10 beaches in the world, Jericoacoara, Brazil.
So, EXIF says: 1/60 f 6.3 ISO 400. focal length equivalent to 28mm. Shot in RAW and developed in LR. Adjusments are very basic, just exposure, WB and a curve for contrast. Sometimes I add bit of dehaze on LR, It looks better than clarity in my opinion.
Great thanks OK. I think I need to manually upgrade my LR because it doesn't seem to have changed in over a year (even though PS keeps getting done automatically though CC). I will need to try out dehaze and see how it works. That said since I mostly shoot portraits I find that modern cameras are a bit too sharp if anything!
I use a lot of prime lenses with large apertures for portraits. Like a 85mm 1.4 . This helps a lot to soften the skin and reduce the overall detail, but eyes are still sharp if you get the focus right. In this case, clarity will only work on the areas that are in focus.
clarity and dehaze are different effects. That's why I like dehaze... it acts more on the contrats instead of sharpness.
