OKAY! I'll pull it up, if I still have it, and take another look.
I recall being especially pleased with the splintered tree shading in a scene
that really doesn't, otherwise, thrill me. 
Ann, I didn't realize you hadn't received my reply to your off-list 
email. I'm using PE10. Applied your system (with variations) of 
conversion in random sequences. When I was content with the detail 
and contrast in the primary elements, I left it at that.
Thanks, Ann, Bruce and Bulent. 

Jack

Jack,

I, like Bruce, see halos around trees. They are "encircled" by a
brighter rim of sky.

I suspect your monitor might be making those halos invisible.

Maybe you should examine the image using another monitor...
