So incredibly beautiful!! Well captured! Be a bit careful with the topaz sharpening and the neural blur -- it can begin to look a little too perfect and end up looking a tad fake. Sometimes before doing the topaz, etc., I'll merge it together, then do the adjustments, and then just reduce the opacity of those adjustments to let a little bit of grain, etc., in. Just a thought! But Huge, HUGE congrats on a well deserved blue!

I knew this was the winner the moment I saw it, and it came up first on my queue :-) I gave it a 10 right off the bat... Congrats on your amazing double-blues :-)
