Among the Giants

[Indranil Sircar]

This is an image of coastal Redwood I had taken last year while visiting Redwood NP, CA. It's pretty humbling standing in front of these giants. I took this in the morning light as it filtered through the trees. Applied topaz simplify, adjusted the opacity and blended with the original to get the final effect. Hope you like it...

Indranil, I like the blue peeking through the trees. The Topaz gave it a really nice look. Simple comp w/ a nice feel.

This image captures the hugeness of the Redwoods. Nice pp for nice look. You might consider toning down the light areas on the upper tree trunk.

Nice image and application, Indranil.

Brings back memories of a time once spent there. It's hard to imagine how big they are, until you stand next to one and try to take it's picture! :eek: ;)

Nicely done.

Denise, Anita, Mark, thanks for the feedback. Appreciate it a lot. Here is a repost with toned down whites just as Anita suggested...

Best,
