About the After Photos on This Page
The after photo on each card is a LUT preview, not a real Snapseed export. It shows tone and colour only, from a .cube colour file made on a computer.

Frequently asked questions about nature presets
Will a nature preset look the same on every photo?
No. Light, time of day, and the green in your photo change the result. Start with the recipe values, then adjust Brightness and Saturation a little for your own photo until the green looks right.
Which recipe fits a forest photo in shade?
Nature Forest Shade 04 fits forest, tree shade, and woodland path photos. It pulls Highlights down and deepens shadows, so bright spots between trees stay soft.
Can I use these nature recipes on a photo with people in it?
Yes, but check skin tones after you apply the recipe. These looks push green hard, so lower Saturation a little if skin starts to look green.
