Fog on Octorara Creek 2

Processed in a similar manner as my prior post. I used lots of filters: Color Efex Pro: Contrast Color Range, Graduated Neutral Density, Paper Toner, Pro Contrast, & Glamour Glow. Topaz Detail. Also, selective lightening and darkening.

You can see the textures I used by following the links: "#8 Caramel 14" and "Grandpa's Cedar and Suede" , applied several times at different blend modes and opacities.

I wonder about the lightness of lower right corner. I tried darkening it, but it didn't look right.

Like your previous post, I like the tones and the composition you've achieved. I wonder what it would look like a bit darker, with more of the black brought out, just an idea....nice work

Here is a darker version. After posting it, I realize it isn't all that much darker. What do you think?

Anita, I'm more partial to the OP. I like the lighter version as it feels more like a foggy scene.The textures & monochromatic tones are seamlessly & effectively layered with just the right amount of tree trunks, branches, etc. just starting to materialize through the fog. You have a great technique and eye for using and layering textures! You should create a teaching video!!

I like the repost best. Nice toning and texture for the image!

Hi, Anita, although it is a subtle difference I think I like the repost better. :S3:

Thank you, Cheryl, Judy, Nancy for commenting. I assume when very few people comment, that most don't like the image. Personally, I'd prefer them to comment telling me so. :-)
