    I d/l the trial of Color Efex and played with it in combination with Topaz Spicify and came up with this image. Kind of looks like a Halloween sunset 'eh?

    Judy, I really like Color Efex and I love this sky!! Outstanding colors. The hint of blue and the sweeping lines are fantastic! I also like the 3D effect from the clouds in the middle. Can you tell I like this one? Is it an optical illusion or does this need a rotation?

    Love those clouds Judy. Looks like you got all the colour you could out of it w/o overdoing it. Wondering about rotation too,.... anyways frame it!

    Beautiful composition, Judy. I love those sunset colors. The cloud adds a lot to it.

    Beautiful sunset sky, Judy! Love the clouds and colors. I thought it might need some rotation at first, but looking at it more closely it looks like the back shoreline is straight so I think it's fine as is.

    Aha, Christopher, you got it right! I always line up with the back straight shoreline at this location. The right shoreline is an outcropping and it's coming towards me from left to right more or less. Thanks for the comment!

    Thanks to all of you for the comments! No, it's rotated correctly, see my other message to Christopher. If it was lighter you could see the shoreline but it's all black here. I like Color Efex but it's pretty pricey so I may try to get a lot of milage out of the 15 day trial ;) I have an old version but haven't installed it the past 2 versions of Ps but I don't remember it having the "good stuff" found in this one and I hardly ever used it. I'm going to check it out when this expires.
