Definitely the best version yet! Me likey Big Grin
Hello Kevin. I prefer this edition to those in your other thread. If it were mine, I would now just apply some noise reduction to the sky.

Cheers.

Definite improvement, this is as I see it, but, you were there. Ed.
Ooh no, Ed. The clouds are too blue and the buildings too bright. (The processing has also substantially increased the image noise.) If anything the colours need to be more muted, but then, of course, I prefer a more natural/realistic look and, as you write, "To each his own!" Smile

Excellent. Ed.
Thanks for the further suggestions. Noise reduction and some further post processing in LR 5.

For some reason, that's not showing up from Dropbox. I'll attach it.

That's a good version, Kevin.

Thanks Philip

Kevin this is excellent, I love the second edit!!! I don't know why but I am not a fan of noise in color pics...this one is so much more subtle, yet grabs your attention!
Thanks Diane
