arigatou for stopping by, masahsi! very interesting that you found this discussion. if you are still intersted, you can find the RAW of this photo here: https://mega.nz/#!Z5dBjBxL!UpexqHpdln15RIE-Ni-hkfpZPmGlD3a64aMMyVPj9Z8 (32MB). As you might have found out, we are trying to replicate your style of post processing. your comments in >>2719032 are very helpful, although i had to use google translate to figure out what you were saying, i think i've got the right idea. after lightroom processing, you use the following google NIK filters: color gradient, glamor glow and soft filter. it's interesting to see how much color glow you've managed to get out of the image. thanks for the explanation

このスレをどうやって見つかったのがわからないけど、説明してくれてありがとうございます。本人が来るとは予想外でした(笑)
頼んだ通りに翻訳さえていただきます。

So here's some translation for you guys

After setting up the image, I apply the gradation color filter, along with glamour glow effect and soft filter in Google Nik.
This picture is jpg so it can be a bit different from my pictures, but if shot with the RAW, then I think it should get the same result. There's a lot of bright stuff on the the signs so using masks makes it easier to correct.

This is how it looks like when processed from jpg. I can't get the same blue/green tint without the RAW.

In LR, I massively ruin the white balance with an extreme balance correction, then I go the reverse way in split toning to correct it.
Doing so, it's good to keep the three basic colors in mind.
I add the glow in Nik to hide away the fact that highlights are unnatural.

When shooting so that the gradation of the highlight of the signboard does not disappear, it shoots quite darkly as shown in the above picture.
LR uses simple HDR processing.
Also, if you need to raise ISO, we are doing denoising with Nik.
When performing simple HDR, processing up to ISO 400 can be done cleanly.
Recently I am using the RX 100 but in case of processing like me it is a camera that is not very suitable for irreversible RAW. I use it because it is compact and easy to carry around and because I can use a zoom lens.

Correction on LR is a feeling that applies a color opposite to the balance which collapsed by light color dark different color correction, which greatly breaks the balance with extreme white balance adjustment.
I think that it is good to think of the three primary colors of light at this time.
Adding glow with Nik is to mislead the highlight becoming unnatural.


CLASSICAL SOFT FOCUS,  COLOR GRADIENT/GRADUATED FILTER, GLAMOR GLOW IN NIK

Use graduated filters to give different sections of the pic different colors
Take white balance high in one direction, correct it with split toning. Toning at 0
