If the road is not taken, there won't be a road in the first place

hi xxxger, dun be surprised. there're ppl who spent hours on photoshopping images. actually it's quite fun! there's an image i spent bout half an hour doing and i quite like it! i'm slow... just click here and click there trying to get what i like.. do a search or read up on tutorials.. i was just going through a tutorial(step by step on DI) last week.. 1 hour past.. still trying to figure out! :P

haha sure was a little distracted just now. I like the composition, and generally I like photos of the sky (or with the sky in it lah ).

your photo is still a little white-ish though so I've improved the constrast. hope you don't mind.

Contrast increased too much IMO...

I will say, over-contrast is one of such beauty.

wah.... how you know, you got a good algebraic equation deducing power


anyway, drumma, increase the constrast would better for this pix....

Nice pic.

Perhaps "the road less travelled" might be more appropriate?

hi hobbes! the road less travelled definitely does sound betteR!

i don't mind new ideas of cos! the colours seemed richer with the boosted contrast. what i wanted was something not too rich and seems faded in a way. and i thought having this amount will be adequate. but i do like the boosted constrast as well~~ but it seems to me that u have some details lost in there. just a minor effect i noticed.

hi nicompo, ur england too powerful for me to comprehend what u are trying to say. kekeke!
