Description

Process: clone/heal layer; levels, blue ch only to color correct sky/mtns, then rgb to .95. brightness to -24, contrast to +11, then painted the sky w/blk as it was too dark. hue/sat layers for yellow to darken the overly bright FG trees, red to enhance mid-ground colors, blue for the sky/mtns, green for the greens below the mtns. For all colors except red, selective painting w/blk so color adj would not impact all areas. Selective Color White to -85 to brighten snow/sky, selective color Blk to +2 for slight contrast adj. Sharpen. My original goals were create a sense of depth which I think I've done, enhance colors and create more drams which I think I've also done.
