Thanks for posting, R.G. Thought I would go in the opposite direction to Billy. :D
Did you stay at the Bed & Breakfast at the other end of the loch?

Used the DNG link R.G. Plenty to play with there. All in photoshop.

Thanks for your post.

This is streets ahead of the similar pre-set effects that can be done with a click of the mouse. It seems to me that getting the colour of the tint correct is crucial for optimum effect, and it occurred to me that you could use the same technique that's used for frames - select appropriate colour/s from the photo itself. Good luck with your experimenting. It seems to be working.

Crikey your eyesight must be good. You can tell it's a B&B from that distance!? :D .

I like to see how far my shots can be taken in the "vivid and detailed" direction because it wouldn't work if the data wasn't there. Thanks for taking part, Shakey.

You're welcome, Al. Is that moody or what!

I forgot to ask for feedback in the original post regarding the DNG file. To upload it I had to condense it down by reducing the resolution and I would like to know if a lack of resolution was a problem at any point in the edit.

In the past I've used lossy compression for DNGs but it doesn't work with my merged bracketed shots. I suspect that the condensed DNG is better than the jpg for editing and the reduced resolution would only be a problem for large prints.
