When I originally captured this shot several years ago I was using Paint Shop Pro to do all my editing. I've since upgraded to Lightroom and have revisited some of my older work. It was yet another cloudless sunrise in the park for me that morning. Well except for those barely there wisps in the ULC. Again, nothing specatcular here, just wanted to share. Thanks for looking. :wavey:

Just curious....were you able to get appreciably better results editing with Lightroom here than PSP?
Seems like this could still stand to be sharpened.

The biggest improvement for me at this point using LR is I'm better able to control white balance and exposure adjustments. With Paint Shop Pro, I did sharpening differently than you do with LR. I'm still learning to fine tune my sharpening in LR.

Keep sharing, Doug. I never get tired of pictures from RMNP. Every year I visit Dream Lake at least half a dozen times. Someday I'll get a shot from there I really like. We have to keep Erik on his toes!

Hi Doug,
I was going to hike up there a couple of years ago, but never made it that far. Nice reflection and foreground use.
