    Love the contrast in the second pic and the water ripples. It’s beautiful. Happy WW!

    Stunning. I need to play around with some effects. I don’t do anything but crop.

    Great colors! Do you use some kind of a filter or is there another trick?

      Thanks, Marko! Nope, no filters — but these are HDR, which really brought out the colors. I did edit them in Picnik afterward to achieve the effect in the second photo and upped the saturation in each, but they’re actually not too far from the originals.

    Those photos are stunning! What editor do you use? I’ve been playing around with BeFunky! I loved picnik, but it’s closing in April! :(

      Thank you! I’m devastated about Picnik — it’s one of my favorite editing tools, and is so easy to use (and free!). My first round of edits usually happens in Photoshop Elements, and then I typically play around with my shots in Picnik (as I did here, like adding the frames). I’ll have to find another fun tool now that it’s going away — will look into BeFunky!
