    Thatched Roof Living

    This is one of my more "serious" photographs I have been working on for a while. Please let me know what you think. Thanks.

    Re: Thatched Roof Living

    I like it. Its an interesting and pleasant composition with some interesting elements. I especially like the birds on the roof, which is the first thing I noticed about the picture.

    The entire image is a little too saturated for my tastes, I think it would look a bit more natural with the saturation toned down a bit. The cloud detail particularly, and the cyan hue of the sky could be adjusted to a more natural looking shade.


    I did a quick edit to show you what I mean.

    Reduced master channel saturation to -10, green saturation to - 23, Cyan channel hue adjusted + 13, saturation -50, lightness +32
