We have reached the final part of our Forest series, in which we will mainly talk about the background work of the series, because these are things without which these articles would never have been possible. We could also say that the background work with this series was much more than the photography itself.

Lightroom and Photoshop

Our raw photos are good, but not perfect. We had to deal with Forest's pictures even more than usual in order to be able to maintain the current - already usual - standard for you. It was also the case that we worked with each photo for half an hour, and as a result, 20-30 MB photos were not uncommon in the series.

Our photos - as usual - were taken with Adobe's mobile products. And many times we got back an almost completely different photo compared to the raw image. We also show a before-after example.

There is a slight difference, isn't there?

During the post-editing of our photos, it was very important to amplify the shadows, as this, in addition to making the images more dramatic, also somewhat restores the mystery of the forest. In the example above, it is worth looking at the difference between the shadows under the trees in the right background, which basically applies to all our Forestes photos.

It was harder to write than you might think

When creating content, writing the text seems to be one of the simplest tasks, but believe me, we spent hours drafting the articles that you are now reading in minutes.

The difficulty was that our writings had to fully reflect the circumstances and feelings and moods that we experienced. In addition, it was often very difficult to match the text to the photos.

After we moved to Notion, the experience we felt when compiling the articles improved a lot: we no longer had to struggle with the buggy, stuttering interface of WordPress and we were able to write these longer articles without any interruptions.
