    Default An autumnal scene for all my friends and foes

    Saluations, creative warbling photogs of wonderment! It's my pleasure to submit this scene for your visual persual. I am a real novice in the Photoshop and post-processing department, but I thought I might have fun with this one...I put the trees and sky on separate layers (a first for me) and adjusted their saturation and contrast accordingly. I'm quite happy with this (but perhaps only because of the novelty-factor) and will certainly welcome your thoughts and ideas and opinions and jeers and curses. Huzzah!

    Jack, I like it and think you did a great job with it. I might add some NR to the sky if it were mine and tiny tiny sliver of canvas to the bottom but I do like the very small strip at the bottom.

    Jack, nicely done - no need to apologize for you PP skills. They will come along and you already have a great start! I like the implied solitude and the word simplicity is gold in my bank. Denise makes a very good observation and I agree that a tad more canvas at the bottom would be nice.
