Aegina from the ship upper deck

[MilT0s]

Few photo from Aegina taken from the ship on my way back to Athens.

I would appreciate some CiC on the first one. Does it look oversharpened or too color saturated? I am not sure if my PP process was a success.

Hi Miltos. I've never been to Greece and I know the colours are spectacular but on the first yes it does seem a tad over saturated most noticeably with the blues. The trees and house look fine but there also seems to be a fair bit of noise in the sky and water that does not seem to be present to the same degree in the other photos in the series.

Thank you very much for your comment Helen.

It looks like I have pushed the vibrance slider too much. About the noise I had in mind a smaller jpg than the one posted. In regular view the noise cannot be seen I thing but if you see the image in 100% zoom there it is. The clouds were too dull in the original due to the harsh summer sun and I had to push the sky to increase the clouds constrast, a step that also increased the noise.
