+exposure/dehaze, grad filter to boost sky, +clarity to foreground
(Download)
SOOC - Random jet engine exhibit, Paris airshow
(Download)
Crop (yes, really!) +clarity, tonal/colour tweaks...
(Download)
SOOC - From hanging basket on patio (no idea of variety, my fingers are definately NOT green)
(Download)
Another minor crop... BIG tweaks to clarity, contrast, colours.. cloning background out

All really great examples submitted here. This was a great challenge to get the creative juices flowing. Thanks again Bob for a thoughtful and educational challenge idea!
This will be my last for this challenge. Went outside my comfort zone on this, but here it is.
Two shots combined to a pano then edited.
First two are RAW converted to JPG. #3 is the combined pano. Tweaked with dehaze, clicked magic color, then upped the contrast and cropped a tad - all done in Photoscape X (free version). Finally, I then uploaded it to PicMonkey and added new sky.

For those who haven't tried color infrared photography, they look pretty bad SOOC. Processing included the red/blue channel swap, and tweaking saturation on each color channel. A lot of the fun is seeing what colors I can "pull" from the IR capture.
What a great idea!

First is sooc. On the second one I brightened it a little, and raised the saturation a little to make it more closely match what I saw. This was taken at 380mm, 1/160th sec. f6, iso 100, aimed at the reddest area of the sunset . On the third I cropped the second one to "widescreen" to fit my monitor.
PS: This was a quick edit with "Photos"
