It's one of those 'wish I were there now' pictures for those of us looking out the window at dirty snow. I tried a few things, first straightened the horizon. Then I cropped to eliminate that bit of intruding palm frond in the upper left and reduce the amount of black at the bottom of the frame. Then I dropped the brightness a bit and increased contrast. I think the last two tweaks make the color richer and create a bit of a 'sheen' on the water. |

| Bob Wallace (BobTrips) Msg: #3 March 27th 2006 18:15:25 | Did you save the edited file under a new name? Check and see if you have two versions. And look in your Image Pool and see if you uploaded the correct version. (It's a little early for April Fools, but maybe Ali started early. ;o) | |||||||||||||||||||||
| Kristina Johnson (wired2theworld) Msg: #4 March 28th 2006 13:08:44 | Bob- Here's my revised version. Yes, it's in the image pool, but I have no idea why it didn't load. | |||||||||||||||||||||
| Kristina Johnson (wired2theworld) Msg: #5 March 28th 2006 13:12:52 | Not having luck today with the uploads. Resized the photo to make it smaller, hope this one works. Edit: Ok, I like the color on your version better. |

| Bob Wallace (BobTrips) Msg: #6 March 28th 2006 13:28:07 | Looking at the two versions side by side (if you hit reply you get a screen that let's one compare any two versions) I like the color in mine, but there's more detail in the palm fronds in yours. Maybe layers are called for. | |||||||||||||||||||||
| Kristina Johnson (wired2theworld) Msg: #7 March 28th 2006 23:49:42 | Bob- Layers are something I know absolutely nothing about. One of those things I still need to learn in photoshop. | |||||||||||||||||||||
