I really didn't like the coloration in the original because it really was not that blue....problem was wrong color balance...AWB works sometime....lesson learned! Am going to attempt Custom White Balance shots on my next shooting sessions. This time I changed the color balance in Adobe Raw Convertor to cloudy. #1484227

Thanks so much Tammy. You really can't go wrong here even in cloudy grey days (which I actually preferred). The mountains go on forever on the road between Banff & Jasper....I was so happy to have had the opportunity to visit here. As many pictures in the camera a thousand times that in my head...what a place and you will have to go there! Cheers =^..^= #10307807

Big WOW from me, Patricia! Love both images a lot! I, too, often change the RAW converter as well until I find what feels right to me! Great work here! #10308834

Thomas, you just can't miss in Banff or Jasper.....the 180 plus mile road between the two are total eye candy for any photographer. My husband was right and I totally fell in love with this part of Canada.....the additional plus was it was so much cooler than home (110 degrees quite a few days)Will write more offline.... #10309620
