In this episode #4 of my Cityscapes Workflow series, I tackle an issue that happens to all of us at some point or another: crappy light and/or bad weather. We've all been there and it's never fun, because we always want amazing light, right?

Well, there are definitely some things you can do when it happens to you - and yes, I go out and take pictures anyways! In this video I offer a couple of suggestions and show two different edits of the same photo.

Truthfully, there are a million things you *could* do when your photos are lacking that "punch" because of bad weather, but these are two that I go back to time and time again. One is a classic approach, and one is a creative, artistic alternative. 

Follow along and let me know if you have any questions!
