Match Look Took results

    At my place, Match look works ok/good but it's also sometime completely off and requires pictures done in the same environment/lightening.

    I guess they will improve that in some future versions

    In my limited experience so far, I have found that it can sometimes match the look between images taken in completely different circumstances. But sometimes not!

    Also you can experiment with which things you ask it to do. For instance in the Match Look tool, you can try turning off using Normalise, which can sometimes produce a rather flat image, depending on the nature of the source and target images. 

    And I think it is a tool to use sometimes, rather than the magic bullet for every situation. At other times, there are better tools for the job.

    Just to see what would happen, I tried using a picture of our local park with lots of autumn colour as the source. 

    This is a completely different scene (without Match Look)...

    ... and with Match Look based on the park scene. (It wasn't what I intended when I took the picture, but it's quite interesting, and has certainly given it a warm golden feel.)

    And finally, using the same source, here's a robin.

    Without Match Look, it had looked like this.

    I think Match Look has worked well in matching the look and feel of the park scene - whether it's what I would have done with the image depends in what I wanted it for. 

    So in my view it is partly a question of understanding what the tool is and what it does, learning when perhaps to turn off some of the checkboxes in the tool, and when there are certainly better tools than Match Lock for the job you want to do. But it's certainly a useful addition to the toolbox as long as you don't use a hammer as a screwdriver, so to speak.
