That's a really cool photo shoot. But God daaaaamn 🔥that's a beautiful horse, especially in that first Pic. Is it edited?

Editing in lightroom. So color grading, warmth, and lighting. As well some softening of textures and clarity to give it a dream like feel.

initially read ‘my friend hand made this Arwen dream horse’ and I was like ‘but it looks so real!’

cool shoot, some of the photoshop needs help. some slides stand out as extremely airbrushed and unnatural

u/fansinframe 4h ago

Meh I wanted over the top editing

The modeling/photography/compositions are really good, going for a dream like effect?

If you've still got access to the originals try adding a soft focus to where you feel the focus should be the fade out towards the corners of the effect... you've got a solid foundation if your thinking about effects like that

It felt intentional to me. I thought it was the right choice for the vibe
