the monument.

I was going for a sort of Ansel Adams/Salvador Dali look to this. Any thoughts?

anyone?

I feel this would look MUCH better as a B&W image, with some radical / harsh contrast added... As it is, I'm afraid it doesn't do too much for me!

Hmmm I feel like the viewer cant figure out what the main focus is here? IE is it the tree or the monument. Both items are powerful in the picture and I find my eyes going back and forth between the two.
Maybe try cloning out the tree if you want the monument to be the main subject.
I had a fun play with it, just to give you an idea. This was super quick, but you can see how the main subject is not in question now.
Hope this helps some

Don't you need melted clocks for Dali?

I just like the picture... the perspective, the PP, the colors... sorry i can be of any real help.

And do you need a full range image for it to be Adams? The highlights in the clouds are blown and there is no shadow detail in the trees.

Check out this image by Ansel Adams, and tell me if you don't at least see where i am coming from.
