This is not the original sky in this picture. I was trying to make it look like a sunset. It's about the only way to get one for me. I must have bad timing.

Nice try Jim!...it looks great...

A little tip....Next time try and duplicate the sky...flip it upside down and make it reflect on the water!..with a lower opacity!.....

You certainly got the right idea pal!..

I was sad because I had no shoes until I met a man who had no feet... so I says to him, "Hey brother, ya wanna sell those shoes?"

Looks great as a DT Jim! I love the deepness of this! Really rich looking. And I think Pat is right..it does resemble an oil painting in a way. Bravo buddy!

nice work Jim - always good to experiment and I think you set yourself a difficult task here as the sky would need to reflect in the water but it has great atmosphere - well done!!

Wow now that's what you call a mean sky. Where are the twelve horsemen? As for the flipping water (!) I wouldn't have noticed the lack of reflections to be honest, I think the sea is choppy enough for there not to be any. Keep on truckin' JimBob.

Well, you took two very fine shots and did a little PS magic to bring them together. That takes skill. Wonderful image as a result of your creativity.
