http://photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=12134930&size=lg The original is here... http://photo.net/photodb/photo?photo_id=12131590&size=md Right click for the giant economy size photo. Comments/critiques welcome In between these two photos you will find 2 versions of Snowy Oaks, one big original and one enhanced a bit with curves/sliders in LR3.3. Regards, Bob S.
