Very nice. Just curious did you add a sky in PP? The reflection looks like some strong cloud coverage and the sky itself is very blue. Nevertheless, nice exposure.

damn.. you are surprising me more and more! lol!

I told her to say that.

I only inspired him to tell that to BR before Gips would post the same

No he didn't!!! It was all me I swear lol

I can inspire from the center of anybody's heart and leave uncaught

Frequency.. if you are going to "shop" the sky.. you need to do a similar treatment to the reflection, or it throws everything off.. and looks really fake! Please post the original....

Gips, thank you....

Such things make the distinction between what i am grumpy: ) and what i wanna be( ) I added blue in Picasa

It happens to all of us...

Thank you Gips

Thank you Gips

No problem, Freq!

i removed that blue; opened it in PS, selected the sky and pulled down the curve.......

can somebody help me with the harsh separation of the selection line????

The very virginal (=original), other than for sizing.....

Here's my take Frequency.

Thank you Eingerson; actually the sky was more bright and details of clouds was availble, which came out when the 'curve' was adjusted; which is the best tool for selection and what can be the optimum feathering?

By the way , I was inspired to caption this image the way i did, just because of him....

That's cool. I did these in Lightroom 3 with the adjustments brush and a couple sliders. That 1st image is definitely sharp. Nice capture.

I'll throw my edit into the hat

I dunno, the image you've posted here is such a weird crop ratio. Do you have the original that is uncropped?

 

[Frequency]

Thank you Rotanimod... i think the saved version is the above one; probably i had made a not-to-scale trimming, way back when i captured the image(May, 2010)

Regards

Good photo! I actually like the heavier saturation for this photo. Not really sure why but I suspect it reminds me of something I would have seen in my grandparents national geographic magazines when I was a kid. The saturated film look. Who knows, but my gut says you got it right even if it is over saturated a little.

Thank you; i have secret appreciations for you

Here's a quick edit where I tried to get some detail in the sky as well as in the waters. Also, added some contrast to original and saturated the greens a little to give it a sort of "post card" look
