I don’t usually do this but here is a a before and after of this shot I took in Vancouver this past weekend. This effect was all in Lightroom 2. The heavy lifting is done by a preset called Sugar and Spice which is a dark toned sepia. I made some tweaks from here. Used the Heal/Clone tool to remove some hot spots on the bottom section. I had seen a similar effect used on a photo of Sydney’s Opera house. I like how the sails pick up the light. Such texture and tones.
I’m not sure who came up with the preset but it’s my favorite one. You can find it here.
