Sky Rescue

Sky Rescue identifies bright sky-like tones and applies highlight recovery through a soft conditional mask. It is an optional global recipe.

Controls

• Threshold sets how bright a pixel must be before entering the sky mask.
• Feather softens the transition around the threshold.
• Recovery pulls the selected highlights back.

Begin with Recovery high enough to see the effect, then move Threshold until the intended sky is included without pulling in bright foreground objects. Increase Feather to remove hard transitions, and finish by reducing Recovery to a natural level.

In Graph, the recipe appears as measurement, comparison, conditional, and exposure operations. This makes its inferred mask and logic inspectable.
