I took the picture from my last post and put it through Photomatix tone-mapping and left the sky in this time because I thought it turned out more interesting. Is this an improvement over the last one?
C and C appreciated.
Thanks.

Jackie,

I didn't see the original though I like this image. The sky is of the quality one you could die for and the composition is beautiful. :) You might want to consider adding a touch more contrast to the overall image as it looks to me to be a bit flat. I used the curves tool, anchored the middle and dragged the lower half just slightly downward and I felt it added a bit more impact.

Richard I have been having problems with my monitor calibration, but think it all is back to normal now. Thanks for checking in, I will have another look.
