Raindrops Keep Falling On My Head *

From the movie "Butch Cassidy And The Sundance Kid"

Raindrops keep falling on my head
and just like the guy who's feet are too big for his bed,
nothing seems to fit
those raindrops are falling on my head,they keep falling

So I just did me some talking to the sun,
and I said I didn't like the way he got things done,
sleeping on the job,
those raindrops are falling on my head, they keep falling

But there's one thing, I know,
the blues they sent to meet me won't defeat me.
It won't be long 'till happiness steps up to greet me

Raindrops keep falling on my head
but that doesn't mean my eyes will soon be turning red.
Crying's not for me,
cause I'm never gonna stop the rain by complaining
because I'm free
nothing's worrying me

HI Traveller! Thanks for the suggestions and the fix. If this can all be done with PS Elements 3, I'd like to try my hand at it myself! Since this picture was taken on a rather foggy day (and through a double pane window no less!), I knew it was hazy but I didn't really mind the look that much as I thought it fit in with the day and the song. I did do a little sharpening and messed with the contrast and lighting a bit but I didn't want to make it too sharp. I don't mind your fix, but it's so BIG. LOL! Would you please reduce it at least :-) Thanks for commenting! CJ

Hi CJ, the presence of haze or the like in an image is something that I am systematically working my way through now. I really liked this image but felt that it could be dandied up a little, (some curves, sharpening and Digital Velvia Medium), quick stuff, taking no more than a minute. I hope you don't mind me playing with your picture...if you find this persumptious or just plain wrong...tell me or delete the darned thing...lol I was just having some fun and practive. Best Wishes, Traveller
