Matt's peset of the week

[robpendragon]

As Matt quotes it's the "gritty/HDR-looking/surreal/dramatic effect" so check it out herehttp://www.lightroomkillertips.com/2008/presets-the-surreal-edgy-look/ There is 4 in the preset collection.:cool:
Enjoy

I don't have time to post any results yet but I have downloaded these presets and I must say they are well worth a look - quite dramatic and very effective IMHO.

They really are cool. Here is an example of #4 - the darkest of the set:

I have two completely different takes on this one... definitely my favourite preset in so far as it's great fun to play with - some really wild effects on many different types of image...
