Nice. I think I like the first and last best.

Yes, they've been just gorgeous this year! And now tht the stormier weather is starting, they're just getting more intense. Whooo!

Thank you! That first one ended up being really dramatic and all. :o)

What a beauteous morning that was! Wow! Love that first one especially. That one's got such a great impact and graphic design, it would be worth cloning out the phone or electrical line running across it.

The misty one second from the bottom looks like something from Middle Earth.

You don't need to worry about losing your original picture, just make a "save as" or "copy" in your photo editing program, and only work on the copy, while saving your original as it is. Be careful you don't save the copy in a lower quality, though (something that took me awhile to learn).

Oh, thank you! Cloning out the power line is a good idea. I'll give it a shot. ^__^ And thanks for the double saving tip!

hehe, cool! I am so looking forward to seeing the Two Towers. lol.

Thanks!

Hello! Thank you so much! Glad that you enjoyed them--with colors like that they demand to be shared! ;o)

Thank you! I'm getting better about having the result be closer to what I'm actually seeing, and that's always a good thing! It helps to have such variety in the skies lately! ^___^

I forgot to mention that you have to give the "save as" copy a different name so it doesn't just replace the original. If you already knew that then just ignore me...:)

[dragon-moon.livejournal.com]

hehe, I did know that one. Plus, my computer will double check on replacing something that already exists. But thanks for the reminder! ^__^

Those are gorgeous shots and the first one is unbelievably, incredibly beautiful.

Thank you so much! That was such a gorgeous morning, it was unthinkable to resist trying for some shots. ^__^
