I used to do that with real selenium. It took an image from green (silver tarnishes green) to a bit more purple. This is a bit too blue to be seen as selenium, but the direction you are taking is correct.

The image itself is fantastic. And the color you like doesn't matter if it fits well into one of the older toning processes. It still looks good.

Nice capture. These big whites are incredibly graceful in the air. You have this fellow looking elegant. The IR gives it a certain crispness that I like. Well done Robbie! :judge: :thumbsup:
