Phantasy Trees (HDR)

It's the middle of winter and I need a pick-me-up. I thought I'd process a shot I intended to do this summer. A 3 exposure HDR shot in a park. What do you guys think?

Very very nice. I feel the image as a whole could be a little lighter, but it's still a great shot, very surreal. Good job.

I like it.

A few suggestions to try though:

* Lighten the mid-tones

* Soften the focus - it looks like you hand-held this and the blur between exposures looks quite apparant. Softening the focus maygive you a look like "I meant to do that..."

* Drop the saturation back a little.

Thanks August23, glad you like it. Yeah, I guess it could be lightened up a bit

Thanks for the comments sando. I'll have to give those suggestions a try to see how things look, and see if I can improve the image a bit.
