Can others edit my Photos
Photos NOT OK to edit
Well there's one good thing about it being dull outside on your day off, you can play about in Photoshop

This is three photos layered on top of each other in Photoshop which I then played with curves, levels, hue and saturation and finally a dit of the ol' dodge n burning

C & C Welcome
 
You done good, son indeed.....quality work here
 
Looks good, rich colors fun doing that kind of stuff.

Sometime maybe try that with a time lapse over an hour or so.

I like it!

Why not HDR? Was the original shot, #2 or #1?

Mainly because HDR would of brought out the detail in the foreground which wasn't the effect I was after

The 3 little thumbnails were all separate exposures layered on top of each other, 1 being the bottom layer, 2 the middle and 3 the top

As everyone else has already said, great picture.

Being new to photoshop and post processing in general, perhaps you can help me understand something here? You've taken three shots and added different colours to the sky/foreground and then merged them together. Could the same result be achieve just by playing with one image? Or am I missing something?

The 3 shots I had taken I had used 2 filters, a tobacco grad and a FLW grad, but as the weather was pretty dull today and I was bored out of skull I thought I'd play with PS and just came up with that shot, by chance.

If Cokin did a Red grad filter in X-Pro I probably would of got the same result. And I'm sure a PS expert could of done it with just one photo but I was just playing and all of a sudden I had the above image, pure luck. Didn't start playing to get that result it just happened
 
Stunning!

I'm not much on high saturation, but everything works great together here. It's not overly saturated, it's dramatic :)

Now it makes sense. I had assumed you were adding all the colour in photoshop. At the moment I only have ND filters and guessed I would add filter effects in photoshot if I wanted. From your gallery photos it appears that you prefer to add the filter when you take the shot.
