Might look better if you straighten the image, just needs rotating CCW a little.

What solkee said, but I'd also play with the shadows a bit to try and make the snowman less "washed out" looking. Great find!

Thanks for the suggestions! Sharpened the colours but don't know how to rotate pic to straighten it....

avatar magicsteve

Download the free trial of Photoshop (if you don't have it already), then choose Edit>Transform>Rotate. From here you can rotate the image 'til your heart's content. If you are left with little white or transparent areas in the corners (due to the rotation), select the crop tool and crop those lil' buggers out. Hope this helps! All the best!

And the color adjustment does make the picture look sharper. Good job!

you can even go to picnik.com and rotate it there if you don't feel like downloading

Hi k5683 - finally had a chance to look at picnik.com. It's fantastic!! I can have a lot of fun with it. I've also straightened my pic up. The road still looks on an angle - that's because it's a bit of an uphill section there.
Thanks all for the suggestions and encouragement!
