I took this shot while walking around trying to clear my head I lost my grandfather 1.5 month ago and last week my grandmother so I have flown out to PR twice in a month and half time and this was a place that my grandparents used to enjoy having a picnic with the family.

I am sure they would love the capture of a wondeful memory.

with regard to technique. there is a bit of halo in the sky around the trees and i would like a little less saturation, but that is a personal taste issue. If your happy with the saturation then that is your vision at work.

that is a really cool picture. above the mountains there is some halo that i can see but other than that i like it.

I lkike the details of the second but I think the colors need to be in a mixture with the first it seems to toned down to me.

What matters is the memory I have both as a child and with my Grandparents and being able to once again see this place with my own eyes that visual memory beats out any camera shot.

I agree with you about the colors, if you can get the middle ground between the two photos you have an amazing photo, not to mention a beautiful memory
