Original, uncropped and unedited, taken 11/30/18. Poor composition and too soft.
(Nikon D7500 with Nikkor 18-200mm taken at 105mm, aperture priority, f/18, 1/10 sec, ISO 500)version 1 – Cropped of course, then some pretty standard adjustments in ACR and PSCS5; a better composition, but still rather mediocre.
version 2 – After applying an artistic filter (Painting 4) from Foto Sketcher.
version 3 – I took #2 further; really pushed the color intensity and contrast and applied a bit of an Orton Effect glow; perhaps I went too far.
I think I prefer #2, although #3 certainly has more impact.
I included the original in case anyone wanted to play. You all are welcome to have at it.
December 4, 2018 at 10:51 pm #741615My favorite is Version #3. I likehow much you boosted the color and contrast. It REALLY looks like a painting.

OH boy, goodie, goodie.
Where can we find the full file with all the original pixels? We need something bigger than an 800 pixel file so that we can get all of the colors and textures from the large file. Can you post it in the reference library and share with us the link?

When I see that this has happened, I’ll post a link.
December 5, 2018 at 1:45 pm #741612AnonymousOK, I’m now seeing my uploaded photo in the RIL. Hope I do this link right:
If anyone has problems with the link, let me know.

In #1 you made the most out of whatever contrast and texture was available. The crop works, and the B&W treatment looks good.
In # 2, this different crop and rotation also works well. And your pastel greens and blues and cream add a pleasing softness, while the red-violet hues here and there are a nice contrast and also unify your image.
