[QUOTE="Marcel, post: 488633, member: 3903"] Here's my take on it. I really don't want to intrude Jeff, and I know that it's just my personal taste here so take everything I write with a grain of salt if you want to. [ATTACH type="full"]177037._xfImport[/ATTACH] Here's what I did: opened the photo in Photoshop, used a "saturation" adjustment layer, reduced the saturation a bit then clicked on the "yellow" adjustment, reduced that a bit more and changed the hue slightly. Then I went in the mask area of the adjustment, used a black brush and painted over the heron so that it would not be affected by my saturation adjustment. Then I did the same with the "Levels" adjustment layer. reduced the contrast a bit and opened up the blacks. After that, I reduced the opacity of both adjustment layers to reduce the effects I had just made. Hope this helps. Very nice shot that I'd be glad to hang on my wall. [/QUOTE]
