    Hmmm.... :D In my humble opinion (IMHO)

    Love them acronyms.

    I'd say the camera did good for you.
    Very nice color to the out of focus (OOF) background. Sometimes
    referred to as BOKEH. A Japanese word that refers to the soft quality of the
    OOF area to enhance the overall item being photographed. Its a creative use
    of depth of field (DOF) thing. Info at the link speaks to this also.

    Nice sharp silhouetted foreground of tree branches.

    So I don't see much post processing (PP) to do other than to maybe
    try and clone out the very distracting OOF power lines. Perhaps cropping
    out the heavy upper powerlines and just above the house roof top at
    bottom frame will save you some cloning and leave you with enough
    photograph that you can still be pleased with it.

    A last suggestion that saves your viewers a lot of time is to try and post
    your images at a resolution size of 800 pixels wide & 600 pixels tall. In doing
    so the image will fit on screen all at once and we won't have to scroll all
    around the image trying to see what your trying to show.
    If your right mouse click your image and go to properties you will see
    how large your image is.

    Hope this helps. Its my 2 cents and I'm sticking to it. :D

    Hi 00SS this shot is beautifully rich in colour .
    I'm agreeing with DaddyO 's comments on your shot.

    The distraction is the powerlines, it's lovely and sharp,
    I gotta comment about the wonderful colours again, I love them :D

    Well Done clap.gif .... Skippy :D
