A certain somebody said I should post this here when I sent it to him on Instagram.
Thank you Mister certain somebody.

Glad to see you back @TheSnowyPilot. My curiosity is piqued as to who this "certain somebody" could be...

The outbreak of Covid here leaves me with too much time on my hands so I thought I'd spend a few moments trying to keep some of my Photoshop skills alive. I wasn't sure how much to open up the tree detail. the sky and reflection is gorgeous. Hope I didn't step on your toes Snowy.
I can see why, what a beautiful capture!
Thank you.
Again, I've just been playing around killing time and did the above photo in Photoshop using masking of the sky and water. While it didn't take me long I wanted to check out what I could do in the program On 1 Raw 2022. Below is that rendition which took all of 8 clicks, nothing more! I'm sure Dale Davis will show up shortly
.Did you happen to take the same shot with a lighter exposure by chance that can be layered on top? This image is really great and is worth some TLC.

If you have another frame with a lighter exposure from identically the same place the image can be made even better by layering them. Was this from a RAW file converted to jpg?
Okay, I had to have a little play with your photo in Photoshop too. Hope you don't mind. It's a lovely image.

Nice job. I would have liked to have taken the shadow area up further, but as I can see it increased the noise significantly in some areas which is why I kept those areas darker than I would have liked. I asked the OP if he had a lighter exposure or a raw image. As you said, it is a lovely image.

The softness on the trees is far better than the noise that was there, good job.
Turned into an editing lesson for SP.
As promised, not sure if these are of any use but they were the two taken directly after the one I sent, no difference in exposures. Maybe a little variation in angle but not sure since these were taken in August.
Thank you.

Not enough difference in exposure to really make any difference. When photographing scenes that have very bright and very dark subject matter in the same scene, if the camera doesn't have an HDR mode where it automatically shoots multiple images at different exposures, the best thing to do is shoot several images from the same exact position, from 1-2 stops under exposed to 1-2 stops over exposed. Then you have the ability to super-impose (layer) them on top of one another and mask or erase the unwanted parts from each layer leaving the sections of each layer that are best exposed. Some programs, maybe even the cameras automatically blend the images in HDR modes. I tend to do it manually so I'm not all that familiar with cameras that do the auto blending in HDR modes. I'm sure others on the forum can address that.
It was originally taken on a Mini and I had no idea you could edit exposure at the time.
