This is my first photo of the serie dedicated to the treck from Zermatt to Arolla. A well knowed treck, but my first time in summer conditions. Usually I have gone in winter, with skies. It has been something special and I hope you enjoy your self.
This picture, is took at the morning when we has left the "Schonbiel hut", direction to the Stockji summit, bordering the "Tiefmattengletscher". An amazing glacier with a lot of cracks, and with the "Dent d'Herens" in front. The alpinist in front of me, is my colleague "of job".

Adjustment Layer
Edited by:greghume1 Gold Star Critiquer/Gold Star Workshop Editor/Gold Note Writer [C: 102 W: 55 N: 70] (446)

Just read about this technique on the plane tonight. I created an adjustment layer in PS Elements. Raised the brightness to +64 and contrast to +39. Used a soft brush to paint black on the adjustment layer revealing the original underneath. Applied a strong Gaussian blur to the adjustment to blend the edges.
