Here we go again....

Suzi's images are a tough act to follow, but I'll offer the following for you to play with - heaven knows they can be improved upon by the artists who reside here!

Remember, ACR or LR may be used to process the photos! (Oops, I see I left the R out in the title....moving too fast here, trying to get out of town...)

Enjoy!

Thanks, Chuck. Have a great time at the wedding!!!

Just some basic tweaks and crop in Lr

Here is one I did in elements using ACR and Michel's method of using presets in elements. I don't know what I was doing wrong in the last challenge because then it didn't work but now does. Go figure
used preset that I converted for the newsletter Night grotto 11. The only strange this is that it turned my image around. weird.
