 separate curves for gold, green and sky. dodged the clouds. gaussian blur on the sky to remove noise and help the border with the mountain.

interesting optical illusion here: the line between gold and green is actually pretty much dead on horizontal.

I like this shot, the angles, but the color of the sky is too distracting !

there is something about the sky - looks mottled or pixelated. When I scroll down to the comment box, I notice that a more interesting crop would have been to crop the entire sky out - leaving just the fainter color trees at the top.
