spirea and hazel

click image to enlarge

contrary to the common beliefs (read the landscapist for details, especially the nonsense about 'hue and saturation to the max') what the 'beautiful pictures crowd' does, i was working with the saturation slider in negative direction. the forenoon light, evened out by some clouds, made the spirea glow, so i could reduce the corkscrew hazel to just some decorative silhouettes. probably i should blame it on someone else, maybe (quote again) the creator got it wrong.
