Actually I did think about it, but since rebuilding my PC and reloading from scratch, I haven't installed my PS toys yet.
:(
Love a good back...

Here is my attempt.
Selective colors as once BradP mention to do... in some photos... now it is routin for me.
selected the sky and played with cures.
selected the mountain played with cures...
Last thing pass it in neat image since the quality is low there were some visaul pixies...
Thats it.
Ps-it still has some pixiels that are visiable. :(

what i love in the original, that hasn't ben mentioned, and that most of these attempts seem determined to wipe out, is the subtlety of the quality of texture in that rock. I completely disagree that it's flat to begin with. The over-enhancement of the grandeur of it, to this eye, is just losing all that grace, beating us about the head with things a careful viewing lets us see with more subtlety.
Sure, the sky could use some contrast, and foreground is pretty bland - but I'd be hyper-careful about wrecking the great stuff you have captured on that rock for the sake of a few clouds.
Just though i'd stick my oar in

I agree with this but at the same time it is diffiuclt to work on a 640 pixel image... you can't really push things to it's limites... i pushed the sky and got all pixelated..

I agree you loose the texture with such a low resolution but I would apply the things I have learned on the full duplicate image.
One of the problems which can be corrected is the foreground seems way out of color as to what it really is. Just will have to select it from the horizon on down and adjust from their. |

1. It doesn't take me that long to do, maybe 5 mins on this one.
2. I'm retired and my time's my own.
3. I like helping people when they ask nicely.
4. I learn a lot by doing it.
Peace, Robt.

I do it because I spend my days wrangling babies... and to keep my mind from turning to mush.... I do this. Also, I get bored with my pictures very easily.... guess that says alot about my photos. :-P And thirdly, I learn some stuff sometimes... imagine that. :-)
