Beautiful scene and fine framing (just a little more room at the bottom) Might just back down on the red/orange saturation, rest looks just fine !!!

On this one I would like seeing more detail on the whites, might be able to select all and multiply !! Excellent !!!

...made the change in PS but overdid just a bit so it shows better Just use select >color range> place the dropper on a white are (in the print), adjust to slider to how much you want to select then enter. Make a new layer by pesssing Alt (command on Mac) J , then change the layer form normal to multiply then reduce the opacity to taste .. around 50 looked good this is closer to 80. Does bring some detail to the white areas !! btw if you would like to leave some unaffected, all is done in a layer so the effect could be erased !!!

Lovely scene - AL'S repost improves a very good base image.
This might look good in HDR!!

Hi Kostas Added a little to the bottom from the original I posted, sort of looks like it has a better base for the image, understand why you cropped it the way you did !!

Such a good learning thread. Hi Kostas, your image and capture is beautiful...very good advise and techs. given by Mr. Forns. All the points have been covered... I would consider doing an HDR on this one to really make it pop...congrats...:cool:
