Polarization: The Polarization filter is one of the powerful filters in Nik Color Efex Pro 4.Use this filter to remove offending blue casts or apply an intelligent warming function to colors. This filter offers the effects of a skylight filter, a warming filter, and the light diffusing properties of a reflector. The sunlight was falling in the wrong place or you left behind your reflector and the light is too harsh or uneven. We have all been at a photo shoot where the light just wasn’t quite right. I like to use only one or the other in my workflow and even then sparingly. Sunlight/Reflector Efex: These are two separate filters.This can also be used as an alternative to Orton effect in Photoshop. It reminds me of the Golden Age of Hollywood. Glamour Glow: I use this filter to stylize my floral images with dreamy, soft effects.I use it extensively in my nature photography workflow but the opacity range is usually very low (10-25%). The Detail Extractor slider brightens the shadows and darkens the highlights while exaggerating details. Detail Extractor: This filter does a fantastic job bringing out details that are already in the your nature photos but are not readily visible.Use this slider to create richly detailed images without blown-out highlights and shadows. It analyzes the entire image and adjusts the contrast of each portion in your image based on the tonality. Using this filter, you can correct color cast, correct contrast, and more importantly adjust the dynamic contrast. Select one you like or use the sliders on the right-hand side for more control. The presets on the left-hand side give you great out-of-the-box contrast correction options. I like it because it adds a bit of drama without overcooking an image. At least half of my images end up with the Pro Contrast filter. Pro-Contrast: Without a doubt, this is my favorite filter.Save your time and energy for finding your creative voice and leave the slider bars to Nik. Here are my top ten Nik Color Efex Pro filters for nature photography. With this technology and the NIK Collection, you can see the creative possibilities with your nature photography. Their U-Point technology makes local adjustments selection a hassle of the past. Instead, they give you a variety of adjustment slides to put you in complete creative control. These filters and adjustments are not canned Instagram filters found on your smart phone.
Filter and adjustments in Nik Color Efex Pro sets you free to explore creative possibilities with your nature photos. My primary goal for nature photography has always been creative exploration.
