 Natural Bridge, VA

Had planned to enter this in the Free Study, but decided at the last minute to enter something else. Figured since I had just entered a shot of Natural Bridge in the Landscape challenge, I should probably change subjects anyway. :-)

I was going for that old postcard feel - almost painted.

PP on this one included:
straighten horizon
selective layers of color sat, change hue, dodge/burn, neat image
tint brush
save for web

beautiful! I would tone down the green cast over the rocks a bit, and maybe leave the cyan sky a bit more natural, but overall, wow! The postcard feel has been nailed! Great one!

Amazing shot! The colour balance just seems to tip a tad over to green. But wow! Can really imagine this blown up.

Really beautiful picture. Love the deep colors. Maybe it is just my monitor, but the top back portion of the arch almost seems over sharpened.

This is a wonderful photo! Nice coloring, I really love the window view through the opening. Excellent composition! I would have given this a 10 had you entered it into the Free Study. :>)

Very, very nice. Some of the rock looks a bit too green to me though.
Nice job indeed.
