This is called winter here by romanaa (2551)Taken:
I was inspired by Shelly's shot to post this picture and I borrowed her title. I hope she does not mind. :-) The junction of two rivers (Labe /Elbe and Orlice) in the town of Hradec Králové. The true winter came two days before the end of children's Xmas holiday / it was a pity, but it is so beautiful. Unfortunately I am not healthy enough these days to walk around and to take more pictures, I hope you like at least this one.
I try to get a more luminous snowy landscape... I've played with curves to reduce the blue tones, and to recover details in the background. Then, I've added contrast, and play with colors balance. Hope you like my version. Karine
