    I like this! Nicely composed. A very pleasing combination of colors, textures, lights & shadows. Nice capture. :cool:

    A couple of editing ideas: Take out the bare branches at top left, crop a little off the bottom, and selectively sharpen the mid-range trees.

    Hi Daniel, I'm not any kind of a landscape expert but I can tell you that I like this image. The clouds, the light and vibrant color come together in that magical way you sometimes see for an instant before or after a storm...and you've caught it here.

    Nice image Daniel. I'm no landscape expert either, but I like what David did.

    Hi Daniel, I started working on your image and then saw what David did. I agree with everything he suggested accept I would remove the little bit of tree on the upper left and right (if your inclined to do that)...Nice lighting along with an interesting comp...

    Very nice!

    Mr. PS Magician always gets it right! For me, I might remove the "stuff" on the right as it encloses the space - what do you think? Here is a quick and dirty using the LR spot removal tool.
    Cheers, Jay
