Dave, this is great. I'd like to know a bit more about how you processed your photo.

Dave, this is great. I'd like to know a bit more about how you processed your photo.

I exposed only for the highlights in the snow, which meant something like a -2 stop exposure for the rest of the shot ... and that's it.

So no fancy processing at all, just dust spot removal, colour balanced through PS using Ctrl+Shift+B and then a little bit of sharpening through a high pass filter layer.

I really do wish I could make it sound a lot more complicated than that Bob, but honestly, that's all I did.

Thanks everyone and I am so glad you all seem to like it so much  ;)
