Thanks, Larry. Think I'll desaturate the magenta some more. Can't crop any more from the right without the larger trees becoming too heavy to the right. Am pleased with the top and bottom spacing. Applied clarity, but adding to the vibrance is contrary to my intent. I'd convert to high contrast except for the fact that I've been careful to retain the softness. It pleases me.

I kind of like the magenta glow. I'd try cropping a little off the top and right just so the trees aren't quite so statically centered. I would also be tempted to try several things with the image: set the color balance to slightly tone down the magenta Crank up vibrance, clarity and contrast to totally amp up the colors to nearly Warholesque levels convert to black and white convert to high contrast (kodalith) black and white > > ann > > On 8/1/2013 16:27, Jack Davis wrote: > > > >Taken at Crater Lake OR several years ago.
