post processing blown highlights - puncho - 2020-10-23

Hi, I have a few pictures where I blew out the highlights, mostly the sky (pressed the reference too many times). I was thinking of using photoshop to replace the blown sky by just getting a mean of the sky between a picture in the front and a picture near the end. Would it be better to edit via the normal sequence and then do this in photoshop or before using LRTimelapse? Thanks!

I'd it really worth the effort? I doubt that the result will be good. Maybe it would be better to reshoot the sequence?

If you want to try editing, I'd do it on the exported Intermediary images. Maybe even better would be to do it in video editing by overlaying a shifted or de accelerated copy and applying some masking.

I wish I could but there are several factors that won't allow a reshoot. It is only a few frames so hopefully one of those options will work, thanks!

Ok, sure - give it a try!
