[Leica] IMG: Harbinger of a March to come

[mark at whitedogs.co.uk (Mark Pope)]

I see where Richard is coming from - but my immediate reaction was 
'wow!'.  I really like it.  It's well composed and has plenty of impact. 
  If it had been shot on film, I would have said a red or orange filter 
had been used.

I think what would lift this image is to play around with the colour 
sliders (assuming you use Lightroom) - lighten the green and yellows and 
this should have the effect of bringing out the tree trunks a but more, 
which would add even more interest to the shot. Sort of like using a 
yellow-green filter on film.

Cheers


Mark
