I really do like this, but please tel me what you had to do in order to get this effect? I may be wrong but it looks like you had to cut aroudn all of the tree and perhaps add the background after? If thsi is the case was it a fast process or very time consuming? thanx

hi Jason! this picture was taken against a perfectly clear and brilliant blue sky and that made possible to choose another hue with the PS saturation/hue tool. then i enhanced the contrast and used the burn tool for darkening some areas of the background. it was quite fast to do that. it would be needed a Job's patience for cutting around all that little branches hehehehehe.... thanks for your comment!

A superb, artistic photo, Ricardo. The violet background sets off the branches beautifully. The complexity of the branches is really nicely enhanced by the seemingly chaotic interplay of light and shadow. Beautiful! Steve
