You keep taking such excellent shots, and then give us permission to play with them!! Here are two I worked on...cropped for a pano look, selective dodge & burn, lightened buildings a tad, lightened a couple of clouds.
#2 I did the same, but added dynamic paint, then took most of it off, so that it's slight...I know a lot of folks don't like paint effect, that's why I did both!!
By no means am I saying these are better, just my take on them!
Thank you for the encouraging comments, and for taking time to play! I am never possessive of the images I post, and welcome anyone taking a go at them. I have no idea what dynamic paint is but it turned out nice. It seemed to make more of the light on those fluffy weeds (that subtle light coming from one brightening part of the sky on a gloomy day is what made me stop the car and go spend a half hour working this scene).
