Description
So here is my second post. This is also one of the three "Frog Lakes". The flower you see in the front is actually edible, it's called a "Swamp Onion" and is just like a "Green onion/scallion" you would buy at the grocery store. I told my stepdaughter, Sarah, this as we were hiking and she kept pulling them up and eating them the whole trip.
I put this picture into Virtual Photographer and upped the contrast only and then framed it. No other postwork. The sky is still a little too hazy for my taste. Suggestions welcome!
Thanks for viewing and commenting on my last several posts. I appreciate all the suggestions and will work on them as I have time.
Have a great day, everyone!

Yeah the sky could use some more colour and "shape"....but man oh man is that place gorgeous!!! Stunning clarity and contrast in the rest of the shot Kim. That vegetation (we have those edible flowers here too...hmmm...wonder how they would taste with pancakes..) in the foreground looks absolutely perfect. This is truly a beautiful place and you captured it just as beautiful. Well done indeed!!! Have a wonderful weekend #:O)

Beautiful scernery! I love the flowers in the foreground. Sometimes a hazy sky is just fine. :)

The file size is killing me but I just had to see the picture. LOL. I am going to have to look on the map to see where this is at. Looks like it is a not to much travel place, so remote and I love the absence of humans, especially their litter. A little humor.

Beautiful pic as was the last one. As far as the sky, if you have photoshop, you could make it into a seperate layer and play around with the levels, curves and saturation under images heading.

An amazingly beautiful landscape shot! Those wild flowers in the foreground are the icing on the cake! Me thinks rayburg is right about playing around with the levels, curves and saturation on a separate layer for the sky. A fantastic shot though!
