Description
PLEASE NOTE, THERE IS A MISTAKE IN THE IMAGE. FOLLOWING THE TEXT:"You may find that after changing color depths, the image appears darker than it was before you adjusted the brightness / contrast. So you can go
back to the brightness/contrast menu and readjust again to your liking"
BUT BEFORE "For this, I'm going to duplicate the initial layer twice. (Ctrl+J) On the top layer (Layer 1 copy)......"
SHOULD READ THE FOLLOWING:
"That's a bit better now!
Sometimes, you may notice on your images that there is either too much sharpness, or too much blur.. Sadly when there is a significant amount of blur
not a great deal can be done to resolve it. However when an image is too sharp [as I feel this landscape is - even though sharpness is usally better for landscapes
I feel this one is a bit too harsh] there are steps to alleviate it somewhat."
Second part. The touchups
First part: [link]
Due to a couple of notes I've had about the previous one:
I'd like to point out this is NOT a "How to make my picture awesomesauce" guide. This IS a tutorial on how to critically evaluate your work (See news article) and use YOUR evaluations to digitally improve your image

hehe, thanks I like using HDR only to bring out certain tones, I don't like the new-agey kind of look most go for with it, particularly halo's around objects.
