Treetuesday, Playing with the Picture

It's Alaska, it's winter, it's cold. not all pictures are going to come out how we want or how we expect. The original of this was over exposed, and even though it was a color picture due to the sky, (overcast), and the lighting,(kind of bright and flat, because of the overcast), and the snow, well it is winter in Alaska, it looked more like a faded black and white photo.

Here is the original starting photo:

Like I said it was pretty much a washout of a photo, I think I sort of rescued it and brought it some life, what do you think?
