This image has been resized only and edited with PSE & Topaz Detail.
Taken @ 6.30 am on a recent spring morning.
Details Pentax K10D and Sigma 18-200mm @ 113mm.
ISO 400, 1/45 sec @ F16 multi-segment:) metering minus 0.5 EV.
I feel image can be cleaned up a wee bit so would appreciate suggestions or reposts.
Thanks.

Hey Ian,
Will offer a quick 2 possible solutions.....looks a bit green, try a bit of magenta and blue in color balance. You may also want to try adding some blacks to both the neutrals and blacks in selective color. Try those first and see hwere it brings you......if I get a chance later I will give it a try also but lets see what others chime in.

I did what Roman suggested about the Selective Color. Then went inot Nik Color Efex and added Reflector Effects in soft gold to bring out the pretty foliage, then added Bicolor filter in Brown to take care of the top of the image.
Hope you like it.

I do like it Fabs !!! Thank you.
Stunningly warmified image. Really brings out the different layers and foreground tones.
My latest effort is much less dynamic.
Decreased green highlights in Variations and applied Noiseware @ Landscape setting.
Will keep working on it.

Roman: As we say in Scotland " Slainte" pronounced Slangie Var !!!!
Anyway just went thro' all the Topaz Detail options and came up with "Color Jump"
This time no Noiseware.
