Hi Boris, It is in the same area as we walked that day with Galia in the backpack seat. Your memory for places is pretty good. :-) Julia is right about the green. It's a moisture-demanding moss, (Polytrichum sp.) that really is unbelieveably green. thanks for commenting, mate.

Thanks Mike. It was the logs that drew me in. The hue on the spruce bark is too cold, I agree. Spruce bark one of those things that I find very hard to render correctly. :-( Jostein - Original Message - From: mike wilson [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: pentax-discuss@pdml.net Sent: Saturday, October 15, 2005 6:43 PM Subject: Re: PESO: Forest interior Jostein wrote: This is one i'd very much like to hear your opinion on.

Thanks for commenting, Godfrey. I tried your HSV suggestion, and I agree it looks a lot better. You may have solved a recurring issue for me there! Concerning the colour space, I have many bad experiences with sRGB for web.

Re: Peso: Forest interior
Thanks Christian. Keeping the greens was my reason for not doing anything with the bluishness.

Hey Frank, Thanks for commenting. I just uploaded a new version, stitched manually with Photoshop instead of the semi-automatic, no-brain-involved process of PanoramaMaker3.

Re: PESO: Forest interior
Thanks Markus. I didn't actually want it that way. :-) There was a clear blue sky overhead, though. Godfrey made a suggestion that worked a lot better, but you may be right... The bluishness may have been an accurate rendering of the reflected light on the trunks.
