I decided to put a bigger version up on our web server:

Just cuz I'm such a freak for fine details and this image has tons of it!!

Oh, yeah, Rick, I like this! I think I'd work it a bit more, go to the Selective Color and add more black (but that's just me).

Well Rick,
You probably will know how I like this image if you go and look at mine in ESS. That will answer "what do you all think of this one" question. :biggrin:

Rick,
This image has a natural beauty that works for me. I might suggest a slight crop just below where the bottom brush is green with Spring color.

Rick L,
You know me too well. It's scary. Where is this exactly?
Posted by Rick Lamb on April 12, 2006 at 10:05 AM
Next to the road up the Middle Fork of the Snoqualmie River maybe a 1/4 mile past the bridge. I've driven by this I don't know how many times.....

Rick,
This is sweet. It's tough to capture this type of shot without having to include a bunch of clutter on the ground. You picked a nice comp with the bottom being very clean. Nice one!.

Very nice. everyone has already said it all. I will add my vote for more black as Mark suggested.

Oh, yeah, this one needs to be 24x36!
