This week I spent some time relearning and, hopefully, moving a bit forward in understanding how to use luminosity masks.

I used some photos from Hawaii. It allowed me to immerse myself in warm sunny memories during the dark cloudy days as the winter solstice approaches. It’s almost here: in two weeks the days will start to be noticeably brighter.

Here are a few before/after.
