some problem with c1 with processing image
hello, first of all sorry for my english. i'm trying to learn how to use C1, coming from years of Lightroom. I prefer C1, but i have some problems, that i can't solve.
1) how can i select only the white part inside the branches of the tree? With Lightromm it's easy, it is enough to enlarge the brush, and clic with + on a white part, and all the white part will be selected. The brush in C1 is different, it's much more bigger, so i can't select only a single point.

2) how can i make clouds like the pictures on the right? On the right there is the LR version, but in C1, clouds (and in general all whites) are too dark, it's like if whites take the color from the closest color (sorry, i can't explain in english too well :-p)

1) use the Luma Range feature in the Layers tool
2) amazing, what a difference, Capture One shows details in the clouds and in Lr they are completely blown out; but if you like that, just go to the Levels tool, and move the highlight point marker (bottom right, 255 by default) to a lower value and you will absolutely blown your highlights. In case this affects areas you do not what to be affected, make a mask on a layer first and adjust the layer the same way.0 -
In addition to Paul's observation I think there could be some benefit from a White Balance adjustment.
There is a slightly blue effect in the examples which does not help the image in my opinion. That said there are also some green effects.
You could try an Auto adjustment in the levels tool to see what that gives you. However there may be some other changes involved to getting the very best result for the entire image.
What is the camera?
