I shot this image this morning with John and his friend, up at the Mississippi Wildlife Sanctuary.
Five-stitch HDR processed through Nik's HDR Efex. I ran the image through a light opacity Simplify BZ layer, high detailed setting. Then through 50% opacity NIK's Color Efex/Small Details, which I love for its effect on bare tree branches. Some Tonal Contrast to get some depth and light balancing.
I customized a Shadowhouse texture and applied low opacity, Multiply blend mode. To balance it out out I flipped the texture horizontally and then applied a second coat at low opacity. Last, I applied Darken/lighten Center, for effect and some saturation adjustments.
Hope you like it..............Comments welcome.
