    Some of these random objects look insignificant, but they take all their sense by being shot. The portraits and landscapes are well done too

    Gorgeous set, Rick. Not one of my favorite LUT's, but you seem to make any of the LUT's in Revolution work very well for your screenshots.

    There are a lot of really good shots here. Definitely a good choice of LUTs.

      Thank you very much! I like trying new LUT's for almost everything which is why I "jump around" a lot with my settings. Some LUT's don't work too great for a full adventure, but there are always a few shots that will give you some interesting results. That's why I prefer switching LUT's around - the surprise of what I can get. I used to play with Rudy ENB for such a long time and it's fantastic, but at the same time the world will look the same all the time. With the LUT's, new paths are revealed, which intrigues me since I'm rather lousy at tweaking any ENB GUI.

      I've played around a lot with Snapdragon and RevoLUTion but I still keep going back to NLA for it's nearly perfect balance. Honestly, the amount of clipping on the "snow" shots, especially the one of the Argonian, would drive me insane if I were playing Skyrim instead of screenarchering Skyrim. I really wish I knew how to integrate LUTs into NLA so I could use the base profile when I just want to play casually but switch to a LUT when I want to experiment and change things up for a screenshot. I hate seeing screenshots like yours and feeling like I'm missing out on a lot of fun.

    The overexposed light pics in the beginning are very untypical for you and I was wondering how this would work inside the dungeon ... this blue is not my taste but the milky fog in the third from the end creates a ghosty atmosphere what I like. I use this light ghosty atmosphere in my Fallout sets from time to time. I think, it creates sometimes the same emotional l mystic darkness which we like so much
    The pic of the aragonian is stunning

    I honestly was not sure what to write about that Set. As you know I like the way you take your pictures very much, and I do like it in this Set again - but I was not so happy with that LUT and the results with the colors (although, it works quiet well for the portraits at the end of the row. The last one is great!).
    Then I read your comment to scuzzle_butt. And I understand that point perfectly! It makes me look in a different way and more nuanced at these pictures. It is the thing to find out which LUT works for which kind of atmosphere and subject . Thank you !

    I can't quite recall, but is this the one where the Argonian turns on his female companion?

      Those shots did turn out very interesting indeed, almost cinematic even with such strong backlight. It made it possible to let just a few edges or shapes to appear, like silhouettes but with colour...

      Thanks a lot, Gordon!

    The desaturated images give this set a very cinematic appearance, enhanced also by the care given to the characters, immersed in the leaden atmospheres of these mounds. Really a nice set Rick.

      Thank you kindly, Fabrizio! It became a short set this time as I focused mainly on actual gameplay and not screenshots, but I too feel those shots depict the adventure rather nicely without being too many. I often capture a lot of shots, because the game intrigues me, but lately I've been somewhat more restrained...for some travels at least...
