About the Image(s)

One of my favorite places to view fall Minnesota colors is Forest Hill Cemetery where there are scattered maple trees. When I showed this image to my wife, a staunch Episcopalian, she said it reminded her of All Saint's Day, when one remembers the dead, hence the name.

In post processing in PS Bridge Camera Raw, I played with the sliders to my liking, removed a few distractions, and did slight cropping. To sharpen up the sky I brought in one of my cloud images.

Canon R5, 24-105 zoom lens, Handheld

What do you think and what would you do differently?

Oh Henry, you are clever! The replaced sky works so well in this image. You have cloned out the tree in the top right, but consider doing the same to the memorial stones in the bottom right and also bottom right to make the image cleaner. The colours work very well together.   Posted: 10/12/2025 06:57:24

The added sky is a nice treatment which really improves the image.   Posted: 10/15/2025 07:49:15

The sky replacement really works. I really like how the front gravestones engraving of the leaves leads your eye upward into the picture. I would crop the lower to remove the square stone and the just have grass on the bottom.   Posted: 10/17/2025 14:35:07
