    LR2: increased vibrance, blacks and clarity a bit.

    What do you think?

    Beautiful! Very nice composition and the way the whole thing angles in and out - it really grabs the eye! Nice crisp details everywhere...it's super. Only suggestion would be to see if you could clone over or minimize the bit of white stuff in the BG just next to the pine cones at the 11 o'clock position. Make sense?

    Dang....I wish I had thought of this!! Nicely seen and executed. Agree with Julie on the white stuff, but I really like this one.

    Hi Markus, I like how you managed to find an engaging composition in a rather mundane subject. Very well done! :) Nice detail and DOF.

    Hey Markus, overall well done. Good composition, great details and good exposure. Agree with Jules on Cloning out some of the white spots.

    Very nice composition--drew me in right away. I'm the odd one out on this one: I find the various spots on the needles to be distracting--some are part of the needles and some are light reflections. I would also wish for more sharpness and detail in the buds. A good idea for a photograph. :)
