ooooops clipped it hard

there are a lot of subtle things i tried out editing this one. might be on to something...

look it might be nearly 2 months late but shiv hasnt sent out the post-shivfest email list email either so i think its all good

i thought i uploaded these here yesterday but instead i shared them everywhere else lol

realized the correct way to execute this is to dither to 16 bits? i think? first sky image is no dither second is with. the difference between the two is fucking minuscule and i cant be certain that im not just tricking myself. as you can see my technique is very scientific.

i messed with the channel mixer a lot then canceled most of it out with white balance. not really sure what that achieved but the image is bright and colorful
