| I have to admit, I'm highly impressed with what you guys can do with the post-processing! Where should I start? I've got Photostop CS2. I especially like how some of you have brought back life to the sky in the photo, how u made it so blue and sunny from a gloomy looking photo. |

Thanks to peecee and BradP edit I combined them both and came up with this. What do you think?
NOTE: All editing credit goes to peecee and BradP. Thanks!
And thanks to everyone that edited the photograph. All looked good but I was wanting to go for the dark look. |

Cntrl-alt-tilde, cntrl-j, set layer to screen and fade, for greater luminance
Cntrl-alt-tilde, cntrl-shift-I to invert, cntrl-j, set layer to multiply and fade, to increase contrast in sky tones.
Select blacks, save selection
Make levels adjustment layer from black selection, adjust to increase contrast and pull a hair of detail from foreground.
Invert above selection, new levels adjustment layer, make the sky richer
A trace of dodging in the foreground under the tree.
I have a full-size jpg if you want it.

That was what I was wanting to shoot for but I am not good at D&B. I seem to over do it. BTW great photo as an example.
EDIT: I'm going to try your suggestion too. |
look under tutorials, theres a very helpful article about Dodging and burning there. it sure helped me.thanks Pedro |
