Quest 13 - INTREPID. Quest 13 Intrepid bridges the gap between color accuracy and tonal style. The default presets offer complete colour accuracy across each of the three dynamic variations giving natural, clean edits every time. When you’re in the mood for something more adventurous, the Intrepid profile can be increased to introduce a warm olive wash of color and a shift in tonality.

AQ13 i - Accurate colors and a neutral tonal characteristic maintains all the natural beauty inherent in your photo while giving enough pop to bring it to life.

AQ13 ii - The adapted tonal characteristic brings softer highlights with a gentle roll-off to midtones and slightly darker shadows, combining to add a dynamic level of contrast.

AQ13 iii - Lifted shadows and muted highlights come together to form a soft, serene palette for a more pared-back aesthetic.

Intrepid Profile - Increase the profile to add a warm olive wash across the image, along with increased contrast and muted highlights.

Intrepid B&W - This black and white profile can take each base preset from a clean and cool tonality through to a rich, warm monochromatic look. (Learn more about Profiles HERE)

“It's really refreshing to see a preset pack that mainly focuses on keeping the natural characteristics already captured in the photo! Each preset in this pack brings life into your photos simply by enhancing them, and not totally changing them. And then you're given the option of the intrepid profile, which adds a very nice warm and moody touch to your photos, and the same feel delivered with the B&W intrepid profile. Overall I would say this is the perfect pack for the photographer looking to keep their photos clean and natural, but would still like to add something a little extra to really make them pop!” - Caitlyn Lester
