Photoshop curves & levels

Hi Neroli
I used the grey picker in curves on rocks I knew to be grey, as I felt there was a bit to much of a yellow tint in the bank. So curves have altered the colour to what it believes it should be. You were the one there on the day though and know what it was, so may not agree.Straightened the horizon and did the light levels. Hope you like.

Levels and selective color

Hi Neroli,
I hope you don't mind but I downloaded your image and thought I'd give a try at giving it some added contrast and a little color, mainly in the vegetation on the left bank. I used Adobe Photoshop CS2 to adjust the levels to give it more contrast and the Selective Color feature, adjusting the yellow (green trees and vegetation is technically yellow most of the time, not green) adding saturation to just them. Otherwise, I'd have just used the basic saturation slider.
I want to wish you a warm welcome to Trek Lens.
I hope I have improved your already awesome image.
Scott
