Bighorn Mountains

[EOSThree]

Headwaters of the Little Bighorn. Custer met his fate quite a few miles east of here.

Thats a lovely clean and pin sharp picture. Very nice colours as well. Even a whimper of a cloud would have added a lot more too.

I can guess the camera was a 10D, but what lens did you use or what did you do to get an image that sharp?

I really didn't do anything special, in addition to the above exif data: handheld, warming 81a polarizer, Raw processed with Breeze Browser, post processing enabled with USM applied at 5, 3. 0, I am still experimenting with BBs USM, I think the radius was a little big, and maybe a little too much sharpening. Then I used curves a little, and added a little more USM in Paint Shop Pro, and re sized for the web. It is a little oversharpened there are halos over the trees, but an oversharpened image works well for the most part for a web post.
