Methinks you got this down now, Jeff.

Good good exposure and contrast.


If interested, and time and opportunity permitting.. check out this on-site tutorial by philcUK, namely; "Faking the HDR thing...".

The Highlight/Shadows adjustment step.. on it's own.. can also work towards correcting for some exposure/contrast issues.

Though, some experimentation when it comes to the slider controls/settings is key.. and not just that of accepting the default settings. Which, work well enough for the overall creative purposes of the tutorial.

And to be clear, the tutorial is for Photoshop.

That said..


Nice shot.

And, but of course.. thanks for sharing this autumnal look through your lens with us.

Really nice shot. I haven't seen a white birch in a long time, and it makes me a little homesick. The yellow leaves make for a very pretty background.

I love the white birch trees, this is well done. tigs=^..^=

lovely autumn colours and capture, like the white of the birch tree
