The picture is splendid, and the colors are great!

[shuttertalk]

Wow! Looks like a scene from Japan! Lovely pink colour...

[slejhamer]

Ha ha - yes, Kombi, it's real.

To get the really warm hues I used the "shade" white balance setting, though a more neutral wb would have been somewhere between daylight and cloudy. Changing wb to a higher-temp setting is like adding a warming filter. The only photoshopping was cloning out a small bird that had flown into the frame as I was snapping - he was just a little blurry black speck.

You get a big wow from me too. Splendid photo Mitch. Very very nice.
I've noticed you've been back to using the drop shadow frasmes lately. I might add a little punch to my images again with something similar. Thanks for inspiring.

Hey thanks Peto. I made an action so it only takes a second to do, complete with the black "stroke" edges and shadow. I'm too lazy to do it any other way.

Does the action only work with specific sized images?

[Peted]

WOW, fabulous.

Pete -thanks!

Well, "web size" images ... Should work the same on anything from 3x5" to 6x8" at 72ppi ... I rarely post anything on the web smaller or bigger than those. I defaulted my canvas size extension to 1", but you could put a stop there so the input window pops up and you can enter it manually each time.
