Often you end up with a render in which your trees, vegetation or areas in the shadows are very dark.
You can use a simple process, to light up only those darker areas in your image to get a more pleasant result.
In the post work, I often use the Layer Mode "Negative Multiply" in Adobe Photoshop to light up the dark areas.
The process is actually very simple, but to explain it more fully, I created a small a video in which I explain the process more in detail.
As an example, I use a very early render of my pacific Island 2024 scenery...
Original render (untouched)
Darker areas in the foreground enlightened with a mask and negative multiply
Here is my tutorial video, to show you how you can do it yourself with Adobe Photoshop.
