[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I worked on this over 6 months ago, so I’m afraid I don’t remember everything I did to get this result. I know I did a lot of it with color curves, and I cloned out a couple of road signs. The tree was such a strange looking thing that I thought it would make a nice Halloween photo.

Thanks for viewing and have a great Halloween.

Hi Werner

The rich purple color is eyecatching, & the tree looks like something out of Lord of the Rings! Good sharpness & pp work. Have a nice weekend!

Hi Werner,

Nice compilation with nice colors and a suitable picture for celebrating Halloween!
The sharpness is nice and the POV is great. The tree (in FG) gives an artistic look into the shot.

Very well seen!

best regards,
Paras

Hi Werner!

How'd you get the sky purple? This makes for a great Halloween photo.

I'm off to a weenie roast. Have a good one!

Thanks,
Dennis

Spooky and effective. The post treatment with that purple sky is really quite creepy!

The base photo could've been better, with that central tree more to the left and a little more made of the road ... but great shot anyway!

Interesting tree and excellent pp work to creat this spooky atmosphere TFS
warm regards

Hi Werner..nice artistic shot...original and well done.

Hi Werner,
Very nice processing, the deep blacks really enhance the spooky feeling, as does the deserted looking road leading into the distance to the right. Such an interesting looking tree. Well worth dipping into the archives for.

TFS,
Scott.

Hello Werner,
Six months? I am impressed. I don't have that patience and pp skills. The purples are vivid and make this a moody one. I do like the spotlight effect on the featured tree trunk, there is a good range of exposure...much to my liking. Well worth the effort. Cheers
Danilo

creepy but beautiful to look at Werner, with a hint of mystery. i admire the work ivolved.
