Kayes:

I liked the way your picture was in the beginning. I just saw more potential for the sky and those awesome colors. I love colors. I can't stand good colors that could be made great. So this was my attempt at making your picture better. I just saturated it a little bit more and also darkened it a bit.

I like the original better. It has a more natural look. I tend to prefer warmer natural tones to over-saturated colors.

Love this, I also think the original is best - nice soft tones.

I agree. I think the originial shot was what it was and the additional changes were obvious with added noise and saturation. Great original shot.

@Everythingisnt - Candid.

@PkennethV - Beaut shot! Crystal clear and I love the sky.

You've got some really nice shots of Scotland, Tommy. I checked out your Flicker site and especially like the one of the Robert the Bruce statue against the sunset. Cheers.

Cheers mate, here's the pic for those that cant be bothered clicking the flickr link.

Nice picture, I really like the way the terraced houses in the background set it off
I really hate it when they build houses or the like too close to something as historic and cool as that, the picture of the pyramids recently was a prime example.

Gorgeous shot, the snow looks like torrents coming towards you.


No shot from me today I'm sitting here waiting on some of the haze to go away so I can go out and take some Photo's
