      Nice image, looks cool.
      Care to tell us in what order you did the postprocessing.

    3. MarcGrandmaison.com (62 months ago | reply)

      really well done, doesn't look too over the top like most of these type of images...

    4. Fraser MacMannis (62 months ago | reply)

      great shot....i would like to know the order too.

      @Marcline: thanx a lot! not sure if it's not too much… these kind of scenic pics usually can stand some postprocessing. however, it's become a cliche.
      @mildata & fraser: used several layers with masks, USM as base, d&b overlay is a main ingredient. it's not a single action but a lot of handwork. lighting is most important.
