While the blue cast in the distance is normal I would like to kill it off by about 50%....
Any thoughts on that one??  Oh, and when you do that...the green really makes it's presence known...

Good so far....

I strongly recommend to retake it at another time of the day, with a better camera (or photograph ;-)), another season maybe . . .

Here is a channel from the red RGB I tried to beat what is already done without success . . . and my tutor demand that I do my homeworks . . . first.

So keep that for you.

Greg,
Could you post the curves for Jean...

I think others will learn something as well

I had pulled two earlier versions of this image and this was kind of rushed and I didn't save curves.I cropped to shift interest to a smaller area and wanted to keep the shrubs a natural green.I wanted the exposed faces of the peaks to be rust or copper colored and the rubble gravel like.Also wanted to drain blue from middle distance.

If you applied the curves the program should have saved them to the History folder

Usually found in the location shown below.  You might have to add a browse history button to the tool bars.
