Lightroom Playground Week 14

Chuck tagged me for this week's Playground, so here goes!
************************************************** *******

The purpose of this weekly challenge is to encourage creative experimentation with Adobe Photoshop Lightroom. All Lightroom users are welcome to join in and for those who don't have Lightroom but wish to play, here is the link to the 30-day trial version.

Please make any adjustments you choose to the following image and post your results in this thread. Share how you processed the image and provide information on any develop presets used. All modifications on the image must be made in Lightroom with the exception of sharpening, noise reduction, and resizing. Matt Kloskowski's Adobe Photoshop Lightroom Killer Tips is a great source for Lightroom Develop presets.
************************************************** *******

Carolina blue sky and the leaves were changing at a local park near me. Hope y'all can do something with this:


The DNG RAW file with no previous editing (other than removing a nasty dust spot):

Have fun!

Gene, that is a really nice photo. Thanks for posting it for us!



I used the 'natural beauty' preset by Nick Tsakiris.

Thanks.....and nice efforts so far! I plan on going back there this morning after work. Things should be starting to turn green again after the warm weather we've been having here.
