Morning glow at Hakone Gardens - a photo on Flickriver

Thank you for visiting - ❤ with gratitude! Fave if you like it, add comments below, like the Facebook page, order beautiful HDR prints at qualityHDR.com.

On Saturdays I participate in a meditation class at Hakone Gardens, a Japanese garden in Saratoga, California. At the center of the park is a small pond with many koi fish and some turtles. The light is quite good in the early morning.

I processed a balanced and a paintery HDR photo from a RAW exposure, merged them selectively, and carefully adjusted the curves and color balance. I welcome and appreciate your critical feedback.
