Life On The Water

There wasn’t any exposure compensation applied at the time of capture so the white cabin of the boatman’s boat had originally appeared almost washed-out.

Pulling back the highlights in post had recovered details such as peeling paint and rust on the said cabin. Dark and mid-tones of the boats around the elderly boatman were then darkened and toned down.
