Same crop, same conceit, going off the deep end...

lots of fidling with HSL, vignette and crop

Has a nice 'nat geo' look to it.

thanks Todd. I was trying my hand out at colour grading. Seems like an interest topic for me to dabble in further!

Thanks to everyone for their entries! What caught my eye in this scene was the branch that @Growltiger called "ugly". ? I positioned it over the bench because I thought that worked nicely for the composition. However, after taking the shot the image felt a bit flat, and the leaves on the branch almost blended together with the background. So I was looking for edits that brought back some three-dimensionality in this part of the image. I think @Hendrik, @mumu and @betamax did that. So that's the top three this time:

1. @Hendrik #2 (B&W)
2. @mumu
3. @betamax

Over to you, @Hendrik!

Wow! Thanks @frankmulder!

I have an image in mind –– back in a bit.

Congratulations, @Hendrik.
