the other side of Jersey - a photo on Flickriver

the other side of Jersey

            Taken from the window of the Metro-North train traveling up the Hudson River on the New York side, Saturday, October 9.

I don't do much editing to my photos except for the rare crop or slight change in saturation, but the original of this shot was so washed out because of the intense sunlight and the tinted glass of the train window, that I decided to play around with the sharpness, exposure, and color temperature in Piknik.

The original is posted below. 

The downside of this type of editing is the creation of some noise in the sky layer......

...........I upload my photos in low resolution.  Between that and using an editing tool that is geared mainly for online photos, the technical qualities are less than perfect.  

None the less, I found this view to be so impressive that I decided to post it regardless of the technical flaws.

Taken in: United States / New York / Hastings Hudson (show map)

Taken on: October 9, 2010
