Hi Jay, Here's the workshop. First adjust levels very slightly to set the white points (bring in just a tad more light), then very subtly bring in a little light on the shadows with levels. You want to pump a little into those hills on your left flank. Next decrease the blue and cyan saturation levels very lightly to remove it from the snow. You might want to adjust levels again after this. Finally sharpen (very lightly) for the repost and you're done. Hope you approve.

I have removed the copy from my terminal.

Regards, John

I didn't like the results; prefer the "as shot" shot.

Hi Jay

Thanks for allowing workshops to be posted to your photo.

After I did the foreground I fiddled a bit with the sky and I am not too convinced of the outcome, but instead of retracing all my steps up to that point I thought to rather just post it as it is since my original intention of trying to highlight some detail in the foreground probably did not come out too bad. So hopefully you will like the total outcome as well.

- Selected the bottom dark area and applied ‘Level’ adjustment on the black & white points.
- Added ‘Saturation’ +12.
- Added ‘Contrast’ +9.
- Reduced ‘Brightness’ by -5.
- Added ‘Green’ by 1 step in ‘Colour Variations’.

- Selected the sky area and added ‘Saturation’ +9.
- Reduced ‘Brightness’ -8.

Selected the complete photo and applied ‘USM’ by 300, 0.3, & 0.

Regards
Loot

for a different "balance"...

Being very familiar with this setting < sun and otherwise > doesn't always help in making a decision abt. which "view" is better... So I decided to also povide this presentation.

Apart from that there is always the "beholder's eye"!

eh! , ;j.

Following the funnel...

To show an alternate view I have shown the original funnel as it had moved on a good deal.

At the same time I tried to make adjustments to the contrast, even though that really destroys the "smokey" way the seafog looked as it was being whipped along by the strong Westerly wind.

I had meant to put the sharp version there.
Well now it is here ;)
