Amanda (SeaSong) graciously allowed me to post my rework of her wonderful backyard sunset Fire In The Sky. A comparison of the original and my rework will show that aside from a bit of tweaking all I really did was clone out the signs of urban infrastructure and crop it to my screens aspect ratio. I am not entirely sure about that crop as Amanda's original has nice balance top to bottom. I did try to quality scale the image wider, without cropping, the scaling worked fine but the tree shapes stretched too wide and didn't feel natural. So cropping was my only option. Thanks Amanda for letting me post this. Did anyone else notice that Amanda's icon looks like Audrey Hepburn in her pony tailed incarnation? :)

Enjoy.

Mikel.

It's really like a fire in the sky, I love the silhouettes of the trees.

Of course I did compare both images with each other, Mikel. See on my screen not much effect of cropping it to your screen's aspect ratio. Cloning out the power lines and the building/hut at the left side of the image, resulted however in a much better photograph. Well done, my friend.
