It's amazing what can be done with the Photoshop "Replace Color" tool :) This is the result of several PS processes though, including a Gradient Map and Channel Mixer. This was originally a shot of a heavily backlit tree I came across while hiking through the Napa Valley. I will post the original for comparison.

So as you can see the colors were very different, I liked the idea of the full frame tree veins and wanted to accentuate it's complexity but make it more asthetically pleasing.
