Too recognisable to be an abstract. But a beautiful image nevertheless. More suitable for patterns in nature challenge.

Originally posted by GeneralE: When we were discussing the legality of this technique I was very curious to see the effect, and hoping you'd post information on the technique so I and others could steal adapt it for our own use -- thanks!

For area's without foliage, you could do it by copying the color layer, converting that layer to grayscale and then blending it with the color. But the infrared effect on foliage is hard to replicate. Maybe with some local editing it would be possible.

Two elements competing for attention, the Matterhorn and the moon. The entry in the landscape challenge is so much stronger.
