Gateway through Nik Software’s Viveza 2 – Day 128 of 365

written by dav.d

As always the best camera you have is the one you have with you. And I had my iPhone right as the sun was setting – the iPhone doesn’t recognize the white balance very well and the dynamic range isn’t the best – but my wonderful Nikon D300 wasn’t with me. And even if I had my wonderful Nikon with me – security at the Gateway would frown about me whipping out my big camera.

Fortunately I edited this photograph in Nik Software’s Viveza 2. The software is pretty new and I am still toying around with it. But version 2 is leaps and bound better than version 1. I wish Adobe Lightroom would adopt the technology – the U Point method for selections is incredibly easy. I don’t have to worry about masking – and it saves me time.

And being able to edit brightness, contrast, saturation, structure, warm, color, and more with just a few control points it easy and fast. Common Adobe – buy Nik Software and integrate the technology into Lightroom and Photoshop.
