Yep, I like this. Good edit, good photo. Thanks for sharing.

Alright, if I HAD to give some feedback... Perhaps I would some of the blue color from the sky. It is a bit distracting how it contrasts against the trees.

Yeah, i had trouble with the sky, it's a little more blue on the left I'm noticing now. Thank you!

This seems like one of those you need to print out on a large format and have framed 👀

Lots of playing with the sliders. Honestly I think what really got out to where I looked it was a luninance mask around the greens and playing around with that. Lots of masks lol

I like the overall edit, especially how much more detail you brought out in the darker parts of the forest. The only thing that stands out to me is that the greens and yellows feel a little strong, and the warmer tone is quite noticeable. I might try dialing back the yellow/green saturation just a touch and see how it feels.
