I actually did a fair amount of PP on this one (for me anyway). Is it noticable?

I have thought of cropping #2 a little tighter to remove some of the haloing of the distant trees. Yes.....No.....


Thanks for looking.

    Both are worthy of publication IMHO.

    Yes. The edge of the tree line is very obviously darker. I'm guessing you
    darkened the sky (or lightened the foreground) and that's where your
    mask edge was. Try dodging the shadows of the mask to get rid of that.

    I lightened the trees. This was my first attempt trying to do this. I've not tried dodging, but I'll give it a go. Thanks.

    Thanks all for your comments.
