This pic needed some colour adjustment, as well as some serious straightening.. No idea what I was going when I took the pic, but the whole thing was really quite slanted. Here's what I salvaged :)
a gorgeous background for this great tree. the colors of the grass and mountains are just maybe a bit too bright and satured but other than that it's a good shot.
While there is perhaps a province in which the photograph can tell us nothing more than what we see with our own eyes, there is another in which it proves to us how little our eyes permit us to see. --Dorothea Lange
What a handsome prospect. Somehow the sky is a shocking shade of "glare" and it is that which throws one's eye away from the main chance. The tree and water behind it are a nice visual path to the mountains. I like this photograph very much.
If that's a salvage job, it sure is the best on I've seen! Nice texture and color contrast between the green in the foreground and the blue in the background.
I agree with onx. I've attempted scores of shots attempting to capture the delicate and artistic shape of a tree and have yet to do as good a job as this one. Nice work.
