About this image

I really liked this shot myself because it was so dark and moody looking. It captured that damp overcast day deep in the forest. This was taken with Grim and Somber ENB v1.5 WIP.

    Stunning scene.
    The more I see your shots the more I am pulled to the dark side of the ENB.

      Thanks Mizzog. It can be a hard balance at times. However I am making my ENB preset a bit more erratic as I like differences with the same ENB. So nights tend to be a bit brigher and heavy on the fantasy side - lots of bloom everywhere. But cloudy weather and days are a bit more ... grim

      I still have a long ways to go to get the proper feeling I want for my preset. It is "Fable" meets "world of darkness". Grims fairy tales - a fantasy aspect combined with a darker edge.

      Glad I am tracking it then. One of my characters or perhaps a couple of them I want to do an undead, cursed land theme play through. Your ENB is perhaps the best for that mood.

      Thanks both of you :-)

      @Corfus - It is hard to balance the darkness with my love of bloom but for the most part I am happy.
