Small Contest
Lens: Kit lens, 200mm Camera: K7 Photo Location: Leipzig, Germany ISO: 400 Shutter Speed: 1/10s Aperture: F8 

I did a snapshot out of my balcony window. I have seen a Birch tree that was illuminated by the sunset from behind. It was stormy. I am just happy, that I pulled the trigger, but the result --- I don't know if the picture is enough to become really satisfying. I think, I know the weaknesses of the raw material, but probably it is possible to strengthen the good aspects of the shot.

So: You can see my best idea until now. I have chosen a image section. I enhanced the contrast and saturation slightly and tried to let the light appear like I have seen it. And then I enhanced the definition of some branches and the strain, cause they are bit unsharp and I got the feeling I need glasses, when I stared at them.

My task for you: Make it better or different than me! I would love to learn about your ideas!

I here you should find the RAW of the picture. https://files.me.com/christoph.bader/qorzao

Feel free to try, whatever you like. Show the results. I am very curious.
