Indeed John, but being a parsimonius soul that would be way beyond my photography budget! I did climb an adjacent hill to get a better shot, but the sun went in for the day and this one was the more cheerful. I may revisit that image though and see if I can't digitally create some brightness and market appeal.... Edit - job done and uploaded ! Edited May 14, 2020 by Bryan Link to post Share on other sites

I'd say that image will have appeal as it is. However, brightening up the "Thank You" might be a good idea if it's doable. Link to post Share on other sites

The "Dehaze" slider in PS Camera Raw or in LR might give the image the punch it may need. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I'm very glad to have them and they're free as well. https://proloststore.com/products/dehaze Edit: Quite a lot on the forum about Prolost and I must have downloaded it after seeing one of these posts: https://discussion.alamy.com/search/?q=prolost&quick=1 Edited May 15, 2020 by Harry Harrison Link to post Share on other sites

Clarity works for me.. I probably discussed it at the time, but I had to cook up a preset for Dubai images to get rid of the dust, and ever after I've applied 50 as standard.

Montreal is supposed to start opening some businesses with door on the streets starting next week Restaurants have been doing takeout here for several weeks. Some are now opening with limited outdoor and indoor seating, but most people aren't ready to go back. A smattering of stores have opened as well with restricted entrance. It's going to take a long time to return to any kind of normalcy. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
