“Hey Ansel, I took 300 photos on my last trip. Can you pick the 10 best ones and suggest edits to them, both in my own style and in Art Wolfe's photographic style?”

Lights out

The darkroom, rebuilt for your RAW files.

DSC_0406.RAW · FUJIFILM X100V

  3. linear mask, sky · dehaze +0.3 Deepen the blue between the clouds.
  4. saturation 1.2 · clarity +0.25 Richer greens on the island and crisper rocks on the shore. Version 3 saved.

Lights on.

DSC_0406.RAW → DSC_0406_v3.jpg Original untouched · 16-bit TIFF also available

Let Ansel pick the most promising images and edit them in your preferred style.

  1. 1 Ansel looks through the whole shoot.
  2. Hazy and flat. Your shadow. Near-duplicate. Railing in the way.
  3. 2 It picks the photo worth developing automatically. You can also choose photos manually, and Ansel will keep your culling preferences in its memory for future selections.
  4. Dark out of the camera, but the sky and the island are all there.
  5. 3 Then it takes DSC_0406.RAW into the darkroom.

From second opinion to final post.

Looks nice. Should we make the sea a deeper blue?
I think a subdued blue sea makes for a better transition from top to bottom in the image. But I can adjust it to see how it looks, or I can open the adjustment panel if you want to play with the values. Let me know!
OK, let's leave it as is. Looks good. Can you upload the RAW and JPEG to my cloud and post this final image to my Instagram?
The island after editing: a green forest, blue sky and blue sea. The island before editing: a dark silhouette under a pale sky. RAW Version 3
Drag to compare. Originals are never overwritten.

…Or upload a single RAW photo and edit it to your taste, together with Ansel.

Not every day is a 300-photo trip. Upload a single photo, tell Ansel what you want, and keep going until one version is right.

  1. 1 Upload a RAW
  2. 2 Describe the edit
  3. 3 Compare and export
The RAW file: the beach under palms, dark and flat.
Uploaded RAW This is a bit dark. Can you lighten it?
Version 1: the same beach, lighter, with soft colours.
Version 1 Better. Now can you make the colours pop?
Version 2: the same beach with rich greens, warm sand and a blue sky.
Version 2 Thanks, let's push this to my Adobe cloud.
