can't say i understand at all what all the retinex sliders do but it does do! only complaint is the haloing on highlights i guess? managed to mostly control them. maybe i should actually read documentation...
culling the collection, and editing & stitching some of them that i meant to make gifs of and never did
didn't think about my aperture and shot the puddle way too shallow, abstracting it with a GMIC filter helps keep it interesting
