 Original JPG opened in ACR, adjusted for
clarity and exposure, exported to CS5.

In CS5, Adjusted perspective and cropped. Tone mapped with HDR Efex pro and the "sharp" algorithm, not too heavily tone mapped.

Duped HDR layer and used Topaz Denoise in sky. A LOT of it. Misty effect on the roof edges, sort of like it, kept it.

Ran it through Silver Efex Pro 2.0 and set that as a luminance layer to give snap to image. Edge burning, adjustment on wheelbarrow structure and luminosity, adjusted tops of buildings for more detail.

Resized and saved for web with adamus sharpening.

Very nice job. I like the effect on the metal roof. I love the saturated colors but I think the brick is a little too red. You did a great job with the sky. Veyr gloomy. I would love to see the wheel barrow a bit brighter as that is clearly the subject and needs to become a better focal point. Overall I give it a 7 or 8!

How did you adjust perspective? I tried to take a look at it but am not advanced enough in my PP'ing to get it...

Can you show the detailed steps for setting up the luminance layer in SEP?
