 I have got myself some new editing software for Christmas just gone. I am still learning how to drive it. This is my first attempt at using it for a challenge. My biggest worry is that I have over sharpened this image but I wanted to bring out the textures in the rocks & grass.

Te Anga is in the King Country of New Zealand about a 2-3 hour drive south of where I live. The King Country must have been very volcanic at some stage in history as there are many rock formations in this part of New Zealand.

Good range of tones, I feel like the clouds are moving. I have hard time settling on the subject, my eyes dance from bright rock to bright rock.
