My take on Punchbowl
I tried to break up the dreaded glare in a bit of water that had some flow (along with a CP and being over to the left). Thanks in advance for any comments or critiques.

Kevin,
Aside from the shadows being a bit dark, this is a nice take of the falls. Cool!

A little lighter, a little warmer with stronger greens and a few contrast adjustments and here we have my take on Kevin's take on Punch Bowl (about a 1-minute PS job). Just a suggestion. A very nice image. Sorry, couldn't help myself.

No reason to apologize, Marc. I appreciate the suggestions (and your looks better to me) :smile:

I like Marc's edit a LOT. Those are nice greens there :eek:

Love the rework.. the greens are dynamite! (hey.. now that is an idea.... :biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin: )

I agree with you guys, the rework is awesome. I changed my master file, as my version here looks rather dingy compared to Marc's. Didn't bother to post it, since it pretty much looks like his!

Thanks Marc! :wavey:

Very nice comp to start with and Marc's assistance really made an excellent improvement in the colors. :cool:

Very nice, Marc's rework really did the trick.
