Photos From Toledo
I am writing this from Madrid, my current home base. As big as this city is, it can quickly start to feel a little repetitive in terms of photography. To change it up a little, I decided to jump on a train and head to Toledo. In this blog I will share some photos and information on this day trip.
Toledo is located south of Madrid with a direct 30 minute train from Atocha train station. You can buy the tickets using Trainline or at the station. They are not the cheapest compared to some other routes but the journey is worth it.
When you get off at Toledo, spend some time exploring and photographing the station. It really is beautiful.
From there you need to walk a little to Toledo itself as the station is a little out. When you reach the main gate, instead of going into the town, Instead I suggest following the road that is mapped below. This is about a 1.5 hour walk and you will have some amazing views of the town. Then as you keep following it round, it will bring you to the rear gate where you can enter the town.
When inside, the first stop needs to be the Monastery of San Juan de los Reyes. It’s a beautiful location with a great garden and plenty to see.
After that head towards the old town and start wondering round all the streets. In the old town you will find plenty of Synagogues which can be cool to explore too.
From there just keep walking round and exploring while slowly heading towards the front gate (the one we walked past in the morning). Overall a quick and easy day trip I highly suggest. Below are some more photos.
Instead of telling you how these will change your life, I would rather be practical and answer the most common questions that people tend to have when buying presets.
What are presets?
They are editing settings that are saved in a file and can be applied to any image.
Why do people buy presets?
Sometimes because they like the work of the photographer and want that style for their own photos. Mostly because they would like to see how other people edit and learn by reverse engineering the presets. Other times it’s just to support their favourite photographers, thank you!
What’s the overall style of these presets?
- Filmic
- Warm
- Soft
- Bright
What are these presets suitable for?
Street & Travel Photography
Some Nature (with further editing)
Some Portraits (with extensive editing)
Do I actually use these?
Yes. This is the same pack I use right now for all my editing. This isn’t a pack made just to sell.
Do these presets get updated?
Yes, as my style changes, these presets will also be updated. Any time a new update is available, you will get a free update via email. Of course you also keep all the old presets in case you prefer the older looks. Only presets purchased from 2025 onwards will receive the updates.
What file types are these presets for?
- All RAW files
- JPEGs & TIFFs (not recommended)
What camera brands are these presets for?
These were designed around Fujifilm, Sony, and Leica sensors. With that said, they will work with all camera brands. While there might be differences due to individual camera colour science, the overall feel of the preset will carry over.
Will these work with JPEG files?
Yes, but you will need to reduce the intensity and make further edits. I strongly recommend editing RAW files.
Are these one click edits?
95% No. You would need to do some basic adjustments as each image is different. These adjustments can include exposure, colour balance etc. In 5% of cases you can just apply and leave it alone.
Do I need to know how to edit?
You need to have a basic understanding of adjusting exposure, highlights, shadows, etc. A more comprehensive editing skillset will let you get the most out of them.
How many presets are included?
10 in the main pack and 24 in the extras pack
Why two packs?
The main pack is what I use for 99% of my edits and is kept small to reduce wasted time scrolling through presets. The extras pack is everything I don’t use often.
What software do I need?
These presets will work with any of the following:
- Photoshop (adobe camera raw)
- Lightroom Classic
- Lightroom Desktop
- Lightroom Mobile
Will these presets work with free versions of the above software?
You need to research and double check before buying. These presets were designed for the full paid versions.
Will these presets work with very old versions of the above software?
You need to research and double check before buying. These presets were designed on and for the latest software.
What file type do I get?
XMP
What else do I get?
- Comprehensive PDF guide
Can I modify these and turn them into my own?
Yes! In fact I encourage you to modify them and play around. Use these to help you get your own style.
