    Early morning in late September on Mormon Row. I darkened some highlight in the leaves, and used a little local contrast enhancement, cropped slightly and sharpened. Any C & C appreciated.

    Nice capture and processing, Mike. The leaves not only provide a nice lead-in but add to the feeling of depth. It's nice that the sun is lighting the peaks of the mountains, the foreground, and the barn, but not the lower part of the mountain. The barn stands out very nicely against the darker background. Great texture in the barn and foreground, too.

    An iconic image , very well done. Nice light on the mountain tops and tha cabin. Might try for a bit more contrast/saturation as it seems just a touch flat.

    Mike,

    I agree with Dennis' critique to the letter.

    I feel this image needs more sharpening and off a repost where I might have over-sharpened it, but wanted to contrast that against the OP.

    {After-thought: After reposting it I see that the sharpness is less in this image then on the one I have in PS - an interesting phenomenon.

    Well compose and the barn stands out nicely against the mountains.
