    Wowie, George!!!! You surely got up on the right side of the bed that morning!!!! Wonderful series, I especially like #1 for obvious reasons! I also like #3 because it makes me wonder if someone was fool-hardy enough to go skinny-dipping that time of the cold morning! #4 is just breath-takingly beautiful! And certainly not least, I love the light on the deck and the serenity in #6. Outstanding series! :saurora

    todd--cont'd-

    did as much as I could in raw then opened in ps cs2-

    did the usual levels and curves-

    cropped-

    used a soft light blending mode to add more color sat and contrast and whatever else that will do to it-

    more l and c-

    blurred the tree in the foreground because I felt it was somewhat distracting-

    some gaussian blur then sharpened-

    hope that helps-

    don't have a set workflow-

    I see what it needs then do it-

    sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't-

    hope that's what you were looking for-

    thanks-

    Nicely done! I like the way you used Gaussian overlay in your third and second to last shots. Like others mentioned the first one is a real keeper.
