I shoot in RAW, so there is very little contrast when I shoot. But yes, I did boost the contrast. PP Included boosting contrast, a and the saturation of Cyans and Blues. Curves to take away red and add a tad green.

Photographs are records of life. Pity they don't make music when you put them in a record player. :p

Very nice Michael. I like how the light graduates symmetrically from orange to blue, and then the fact that the cloud detail is so nice just completes the composition with a lot of extra interest too.

Lovely shot Michael, great sky and smooth reflection too

If I were to be picky perhaps cloning out that tiny wee twig thats lit up in the bottom right corner as my eye is drawn to it. :)

Beautiful reflection of those absolutely stunning clouds.
The formations just suck your eyes right into the picture.
Great work.

Lovely color.

Are you going to close your kit lens thread? https://photography-on-the.net/forum/showthre​ad.php?t=246303


Bless the recently fallen and their family and friends.
I have a Cannon with me at all times. You can't take the shot if you don't have something with which to shoot. :rolleyes:
