| | | JustChecking -- nice capture of a lovely moment -- I just wanted to increase the moody feel... Did some Color Range selections and hue/sat of those selections, then added layers to adjust lighting/colors to my goal. |

| | | WOW CJ wonderful. For some reason, it looks as if it is raining or as just rained. Love the feel.

| | | Thanks 4 the pic JC. Here's my humble interpretation, modified originals stacked together with various blends:
1. Original
2. Virtual Photographer: hard steel (softlight -60)
3. Crystalize (dissolve -44)
4. Texturize : canvas (normal -30)

| | | When I saw the picture I had this idea of an animal butt that needed to be placed in there .. no idea why it just came to mind.

| | woooooooooooooooooow!!!!!!
CJ - love the after-rain-mood.... esp. the colours that turned out on the rail...
Elle - great turn in the mood - autumn mood fits it great!
Mark - just lovely, ready for framing.
Naburi - i had similar idea, w/ guy going on the rail... but the rhyno fits it better 
Drach - a bit scary, but very well done - esp. the sky looks like really seen throught the water  |
