MIYV is open to all to try your editing techniques with skill levels from beginners to experienced users.

Went out earlier today to have a photo for you to edit. Came back with several dull landscapes, winter in Texas is very drab.
I took this photo several years ago. Has a lot of color to play with.

Feel free to download this image to your computer. Then you can edit it any way that you think is an improvement. Composites, different cropping, black and white conversions, textures, sky swaps, inverted images, solarization, or whatever else you think will improve the photo are acceptable techniques for your edit. When you are finished, post your edit in this thread. Edits will be accepted until 9pm Eastern time on Thursday. No edits will be accepted after that time because we will begin voting then. Thank you for your efforts and your participation.

I took this several years ago at Paradise Cove on the west coast of Oahu. It certainly needs some work.

This is the SOOC jpeg from an old Canon camera.

In photographing the moon I have difficulty getting a sharp image as the moon is rising over water. I also have difficulty getting a sharp image when the rising moon is reddish/orange, which usually occurs as the moon is rising over the water. I have a bit more luck getting a sharper image when the moon is higher in the sky. And a lot more luck when the moon is a crescent moon rather than a full moon. I don’t know if there is some sore of weird water or atmospheric phenomena at play, or if it just a lack of skill on my part (which is certainly a possibility). I’ll attack a few photos which may help to illustrate the issue. If this helps I shoot with a Nikon D850 with a Tamron 150-600 G2. I usually use an ISO of 100-200, F-stop of 11 and a shutter speed that varies depending on the location of the moon. Thanks in advance for your help.

Right out of camera, saved as jpg. A trip along the coast a few years back, kept me busy with many different photo options. Hope you enjoy making this image into your vision. Bev
