The game will last 1 week and whoever can produce the best edited image (as judged by me) will be picked as the winner, and it'll be their turn to post their unedited picture for all of us to take a crack at.

The participants must have their "Image Editing OK" turned on and they must provide at least a simple breakdown of how they edited the image, some entrants are a little vague on this point - please give us all details so we can learn and share tips. For instance if you use the Unsharp Mask tool or Smart Sharpen, provide us with the adjustments you used so others can try them out.

You can post multiple images, but the first image you post will be the one that is judged all other images will be considered for knowledge and tip use only.
Feel free to comment and/or ask questions at any time. This is a good competition for learning new methods, so let's make it a bit more dynamic. I will be judging edits, not comments.

If you happen to be the winner of the game please start the next one with the title of the game and the following number. For example…the next game should read "Before & After #534".

Submissions end, Tuesday, September 9th, 2014 at 10pm CET and a winner will be announced.

Opened in Camera Raw and adjusted white balance, exposure, whites,shadows and blacks. Sharpened. In CS6, duplicated BG, LAB colour boost then selective toning of sky. Light painting on buildings, boats and reflection. Smart sharpen to finish.

Did some ACR adjustments then did some experimenting in PS.
In the end (not shown in the screen shot), I added a warming filter and levels adjustment to
brighten it up a bit. Lightened the blues, cropped, and added border.
Also messed up the level of things so it looks kind of wonky!

I like both edits. 2 different moods but both good.
As I like colorful pics, I'll give it to Douglas.
Congrats.
