Ha ha, colour, contrast, crispness etc........hope you didn't take it as a criticism dude, either of photo enhancement or your photography skills.;)...,..I saw the original on your great web site (some fantastic shots,) & noticed the difference, although I had my doubts before,... my daughter uses such software, which is an art in it's self...I wouldn't know where to start & my photos need all the help they can get, but in my case, you can't turn a sow's ear into a silk purse.:(

Took this last night, I think you can roughly guess the time of day. I would have uploaded it then but forgot about it until this morning. D'oh!

Anyway that's the view out my backdoor down the hill into the village of Pontécoulant, you can just make out the village church in the shadows below the sun. Going out with my camera today on the dogwalk and hope to nab some more sparkly picures of snow.
