There are two nits that I could pick: 1. The shadow areas seem to be a bit green. Maybe add just a bit of magenta to the shadows? 2. There is a crane on a building in the background far right that I find annoying on third or fourth glance. You're a lawyer- couldn't you have filed a writ to remove that crane before you took the photo?! -- Ken Hart |

I played with the shadow area green for quite a while. I probably could do that with a luminescence selection, but I am not certain it is worth the effort. I just thought of an easy way. https://www.dropbox.com/s/c5ne8jw8o9ccg7w/20170810_skyline%20sunset_4129%20mono.jpg?dl=0 2.

It is, however, an equally good, but much different photograph. In GIMP, I can easily vary the color of either highlights, midtones, or shadows. I have yet to find the way to vary the color of all densities simultaneously. I mention this only because everyone knows that Linux software, including GIMP is completely useless.

According to the resident "expert" on all things. This "expert" has never posted any of his work. Perhaps he is afraid of exposing his warts. Some forget that this is a hobby for most of us. I've seen some nice results from Gimp users and terrible results from users of other post processing programs. (My images included.) 2.
