Stormy Autumn

I captured this image last fall outside of Crested Butte, CO. Most images from this location are cropped to panoramic format. I have played with a few panoramic formats but for presentation on NPN I chose full frame since panoramic comps don't work so well at a smaller size.

All comments and critiques are welcome. I am particularly interested in the color. I dialed back some of the yellows because they made the greens look a little too much like army green. I still haven't mastered the battle over compression which seems to be killing all of the details in this image.

f8; 1/800 sec

Processing:
Curves Layer for global contrast
Color Balance layer to pull back the yellows especially in the green leaves
TK's vibrance and saturation masks with a dash of smart glow
Slight Vignette
