Upon Carol Clarkes' request, here's another version taken a couple minutes later where the color doesn't compete with his head as much. Hard not to see those brilliant Fall New England colors! I actually de-saturated by 10 points in the final image.

This is very nice, Mark, but personally, I prefer the exposure and color saturation in your original image. To me this seems a little on the bright side when the two are compared. Having said that, this is still a fine image, and the color here does not compete with the head as much!

Yeah, I hear you Ron - I didn't spend the time to make this image "print ready" like the first. I should know better, and I just posted this for Carole to show I had others. I'll be more careful next time!

I should know by now the fine people of NSN will be watching carefully!

I didn't post process this nearly enough.....

No problem, Mark, and no explanation is necessary. We all know you are a master photographer.
