This large park on the outskirts of Bath is very peaceful and inviting. The palladium, set in a hilly landscape is a fine architectural feature of the park.

NOTE:
OOPS!!I uploaded the wrong picture by mistake. The pixels on this are all wrong and not correct for a web upload. I will correct it in an edit at a later date.

Adrian has done a fab job in the WS. Thank you, Adrian

Rotate, crop, sharpen

First, used the Measure Tool to draw along the deck of the bridge, and then rotated 1.4°CCW to straighten it.

Next I cropped the original image to try and find a selection that I preferred from the original version. I felt that the way the bushes echo in the foreground worked well, and provided a little more foreground interest.

Next I sharpened it twice, once with a wide radius to boost the local contrast, then again at a small radius to bring out the detail from the shot a little more.

Ran Image/Adjustments/PhotoFilter Warming-85 at 25% to warm up the colours to make up for the overcast weather.

Hope you like it :D
