Coorg morning again.

Rudra da,

Nice pic. Has it been given the photoshop treatment ? Asking because I am planning to learn to photoshop pix.

If it is PSed, can you pl post the original one also so that I can understand what all enhancements can be done.

Eddy, this was shot very early in the morning. Tripod mounted EOS 1Ds with 50mm normal lens. Metering was for the sky and hill area.

I didn’t go for any Photoshop treatment because it was not necessary.

Evaluative metering in Canon is truly exceptional.

For a non-enchanced shot, it is really superb.
