I took this photo and while the scene was colorful I dont feel like I captured it as it could have been.
The second one I tried to enhance the color and this is all I got.
I really would like to make the images just pop off the screen and I can't seem to find out what I'm doing wrong.

I gave it a shot with PSE 9,,Im far from a pro, still learning myself. The pic looked good once I saw it on my monitor, so I don't know how it's going to look once I post it. Hope you don't mind my playing around with it. You took a nice photo.

Edited slightly with PSE 9

that looks much better than mine. I always feel like my camera just isn't up to par with some of the photos I see posted on here. But I SO want to be better than what I am.

I would contact Adobe and request another download. Do you still have your license key? They may be able to look you up by your personal information if you registered the program...as expensive as it is...it is worth a try!!

This looks better and can be achieved with any program that will give you some saturation control but don't over do it. Now I would try some graduated tint so the sky doesn't looked so washed out..............

Far from a pro also but on my screen I'm seeing heavy pixilation in the sky and too much sharpening...Just my opinion

While were at it can someone explain to me how you transfer pics to my computer to be re-edited---trying but not having any luck. No computer genius here......
