Here is the Rock of Gibraltar from the sea, in my opinion it could make a dramatic image. The weather was not great, a little misty. A big sky with dominant clouds, and the huge rock to play with. The sea was choppy hence the tilt. Here's your chance to rescue the image. Handle it in any way you want. No RAW this time only the attached jpg. Have fun.


Shakey, thanks for another opportunity to exercise creativity and practice the fine art of post processing. I primarily work in Lightroom with a rare jaunt over to photoshop only if necessary. I worked your really nice capture and brought out the sky got rid of the hazy foggy look of the Rock by using clarity and dehaze and some dodge and burning.. Lastly applied a post crop vignette and also straightened..

Hope you like it... I do!

Shakey, No chastisement meant at all. I view this forum as a place to share what we know and what we like, as well. I appreciated your leg pull, the rock and roll part especially. I'm glad I could share a bit of background of the subject of your photograph.
You're welcome,
Bob

Bob, you are clearly a life long student of music and photography, and no doubt many other subjects. You are a gentleman who has chastised a crude leg pull with a further message to build the knowledge and manners lacking in this old and primitive person. Thank you, Bob.

Here's my go Shakey. Started in lightroom then into photoshop.
Took the short way and used Smart Photo editor.

The short way worked, AlMac. Wow, dramatic colors.

Another view - increased clarity and sharpness, worked a bit with leveling out the colors.

You made it a beautiful clear day, Bob. It was anything but on shooting.
