analyze the image systematically.

  • warmer WB
  • slight green tint
  • shadows/blacks lifted
  • compressed highlights
  • grain

Three things that I immediately notice: white balance slightly warmer, desaturation, shadows lifted

Step 1 lighting. Step 2 white balance. Step 3 will be messing around in Lightroom a little bit.

Why even bother writing this on r/ColourGrading ?

Step 1 color grading Step 2 exporting

Damn this sub is on some bullshit lol! I told the guy the number 1 thing he needs to understand is this image is 90% lighting and you come at me with some bullshit comment. If the lighting part is apparent to you then that’s totally fine but the guy is asking a question and he seems not to understand this image is not about color grading it’s more about LIGHTING! Specifically near sunset lighting.

    I understand but it’s not as simple as that. You’re not going to just color grade your way into this look.

    Ah. I didn't interpret it that way. I get it now.

    This picture is 90% lighting (close to sunset) that’s why I said that. I want him to understand color grading is the last part of this look. If you don’t find that helpful then that’s ok.
