.....the sky was really blue in this photo but it lacked something, so I played around in Photoshop and changed the colours, the contrast, shadows and well I just kept clicking on all the settings until I was happy with it! lol! I quite like it ...and it is time to get up, sooooo...... WAKEY WAKEY!!

Yes, i have that sometimes to Patti. so you made a wise decision here. The yellows and blacks are perfect for this image and very original, insted of just using black and white, good show indeed.

I think this worked VERY well. I like the yellow tinted sky. Perfect with the silhouettes you composed. The rooster is a great touch against that morning glow. Now ... thing is ... do you remember how you did all this ? LOL

A greenish sky like this is rare and adds a nice "Irish" tinge to it given the old structure.Fine shot,Patti.

Wow, an amazing manipulation! I don't think it could be any better! The sky is so dramatic like this, I can't imagine it blue. I like the framing and the title as well. Diane
