Early Morning on the Swan River, Perth, WA

[PatBo]

Just going through old photo's, this one 2004. At the time I thought it was great, maybe because it was my first time down under, generally I don't process, at most crop.

Anyone like it?

Composition certainly had potential but the light is killing it unfortunately.

Try a little colour correction take the brightness down a touch over all and try the dehaze slider. Then if you want to try and lift the shadows to get back some of the detail from the shadows you can do that selectivity. It will never be a perfect shot because of the sun and the glare it's caused, but it's a memory for you and for me that's what counts and makes it worth a little rescuing [emoji4]

That is what is important. If you like it, it' a good photo. However I would have to agree with the others about the lighting.
