Jamil, what a wonderfully detailed image - gorgeous! IMHO the greenery below the image would benefit from some desaturation, this would balance the colour saturation in the entire image . Wow, I am amazed at the character in this fabulous old tree - well captured :-) #407505Gail Vitikacs March 12, 2006

Thank you Amanda at your very valuable advice , in fact I had desaturate the all but the trees will lose thier weight but with little saturation it is more detailed and keeps it's character , thank you and very much appreciate #2524702Jamil Saliba March 12, 2006

This is a marvelous capture, Jamil! I can emphasize with you trying to capture the detail in the grass and trees, and all your efforts being over riden with the brilliant background. These trees have such an imposing character. #2917368Sign up for an interactive online photography course to get critiques on your photos.
