Yellowstone Nights (best if viewed large)

Jim this image is so coo, but it looks like a painting. I don't know if I am right or wrong. I have never been to Yellowstone. I will check back to see what you say, either way, I love it!!! Beautiful!!!!

Gail,

Here is the original. As you can see I did a heavy crop followed by some LR & PS adjustments. LR adjusts were pretty standard. Didn't document what I did in PS. However, I didn't intentionally do anything to make it look like a painting as I have not  yet learned how to do that sort of thing. Thanks for your comment. BTW, I haven't had a chance to try out the suggestions you made for another image that you discussed in an email you sent me. Will send it to you when I do. Cheers, Jim

PS - This image doesn't seem to have very broad appeal in terms of views and rates on PN. But maybe that is a positive!
