    Taken during the peak of the summer earlier this year.
    Comments welcome.

    Very nice Ian – I like the clouds reflecting on the lake. The rocks in the foreground on the bottom right seem a tiny bit dark? Maybe a levels adjustment might work.

    Love this scenic shot. Just needs a touch of brightness.

    thanks for the C&C folks. You weren’t the first to point out that the image needed a bit of brightness lift in places.
    I’ll do some selective levels adjustments (probably with layers) and repost later. It was handheld as we were
    on a fairly quick trek and needed to keep eye on our kids near the lakeside so opportunity to setup a tripod
    was limited.

    D70, 12-24mm f/4 if I recall.

    Some layer mask and adjustment layers to bring out some of the suppressed shadow detail in the foreground rocks.
    Tricky to bring these up too much. A single RAW image was taken but the dynamic range of digital being as it is makes
    it challenging to pull out a lighter tonality in the foreground rocks.

    I did some color cast removal (reduced blue cast somewhat) and selectively sharpened and de-misted the background hill detail
    using high radius USM.
