Thanks for the direction Peter.
Originally posted by Peter Zack From what you posted the camera did a pretty good job of capturing the foreground and not blowing out the brighter sky.
Trying to get the knack of exposure. In this instance took a reading (with the K100D) of the sky, then of the subject, finally making a compromise between the two. Clearly, whilst not blowing the sky, I blew something.
Have adjusted the levels in all but the sky (by selecting it and then inverting)
a) First making a levels (RGB) adjustment by clipping.
b) Then going to levels again, and selecting the enhance per channel contrast - which i think introduced some saturation
Very pleased with your enhancement.
Sorry for keeping the image down to 640pix, but I don't want to clog things up as I post my efforts to follow advice.
