Lol, great creative minds think alike ... what can I say. :o)

My curiosity got the better of me and I had to take a look. Nice work Mimi.

And given that you are using CS3 ... this will be a good foray into some of the new 'stuff' that is available with that edition. In particular, the Remove Grain effect.

Back with more thoughts later. :o)

This really looks good Mimi. I don't have Photoshop so I don't understand any of this at all. Maybe someday. Seems so complicated. I will learn and I think this is a good thread for those of us that aren't that knowledgeable on editing.
Thanks

Very nice Mimi how the shades merge ever so subtly in this. Seems as though you put a lot of work into this and it shows. It's beautiful.

You did the rework with a lot of delicacy. Very different than the first uploads. Very good idea Mimi :-)

I followed Noah's thread and looked at the others. You did a beautiful job with this image, Mimi. Beautiful soft, unforced color. And kudos to Noah for providing such a wonderfully versatile image to play with!

Mimi, wonderful rework on Noah's image. The blue, purple, & pink make for one gorgeous sky. Just looking at this image gives me a peaceful feeling. A fun challenge. :-)

Another gorgeous rework - lovely plummy colours. I particularly like the clouds at the horizon - they are soft and curling without being too sharp or too blurry. The tree itself is clear (and gives impression of depth) without being too sharp.

Thanks for commenting on my effort as well. :-)

Just sorta fun Mimi? It became even more fun when I compared everyone’s interpretation. I love the colours you show in this one and going by the score so did a few others :-)

Great colours. Nice framing. The juxtaposition of the tree against the sky. Lovely

Oh this is just breathetaking. Has a nice feel to it, I've only had the feel once in my life though. I was visiting some family friends in the country, very far away from any pollution. When I walked outside, the air was unbelievably fresh and nice to breathe (I know that sounds weird, but I am for real). This picture has the same feel to it, so thanks!!
