There is nothing special here just a tweak in levels and a boost in contrast and saturation.

<p>I liked the original perspective of this image but i later realised that the light that was coming of the adverts on the side were beautiful&#8230;</p>
<p>i have just used the curves to pull out this light and then tone down the rest of the backgrounds&#8230; i also added a layer effect multiply to be exact and a little gaussian blurr..</p>
<p>do people like it or is it too dark&#8230;</p>
<p>one fore thing i had to crop it down as it had allot of useless space above and below it..</p>

<p>This concludes the Ringwood forest series&#8230;  Please do go through and tell me what you think of them and leave lots of helpful and even constructive criticism.</p>
<p>There is two main aspects that are consistent with this series,</p>

<li>Black and White</li>
<li>Forest and trees</li>
</ol>
<p>I have tried to display a few different ways of taking pictures in a Forrest and i hope that it has helped you see what is possible.</p>
<p>Tell me which one you like the most&#8230;</p>
