 Wow, I usually don't enter free studies because it's too hard. This is awesome, I feel like it's a milestone for me. Thanks for the votes and comments!


Yep, 3 exposure HDR, levels, hue sat, dodge and burn. USM. Thanks for the feedback, I think I need to work on my sharpness levels, I hear that a lot.

Terrific image. A little oversharpened in my opinion but that's just a matter of taste. Some blown highlights in the one cloud but that's minor. I've seen a lot of comments saying this is HDR but I thought I should ask if it is or not. If it is its been done well. (I dislike HDR where is has the haloing and the cartoony look to it which this certainly does not).

Nice vibrant colors and a great composition. I'd really like to see the processing steps for this image.

Wow - this would've made a great entry for 'X marks the spot' - looks pretty good in an FS too though!
