While Carinthia had a meter of Snow in February (and in some places it’s still around), Vienna didn’t have much snow at all this year. Still, even if the winter was not hard, there is something magic in the coming of Spring.
This is just a morning image without much of a subject. The image coming out of the camera completely failed to reproduce the warmth and radiance that I had seen and could remember, but I think putting it through careful post-processing I have come pretty near. By the way, this is Lightroom only. I can hardly use Photoshop any more 😄
The Song of the Day is “Spring is Here” by John Coltrane. Really, why not instrumental this year? Hear it on YouTube.

Nice image, and same here. I can't use Adobe products because they're not available for Linux, and even if they were I doubt that I would. Instead, I use the Olympus Viewer 3 on a small virtualized Win7 image just to keep Olympus' 'magic' colours, and do the rest with RawTherapee on Linux. Tho I have made camera profiles, it's still faster and better than to use RawTherapee alone (which I sometimes do if I want more 'correct' than 'beautiful' colours, and more DR).
