I like the brooding feeling given by the dark clouds. Very nice image. Helen

Very good image Jerry. The clouds behind really give this image some great mood. You did a great job with the toning, too. Have you printed this one out yet? :) James

Thank you both for your very kind comments. I actually did very little to this nightshot image. PSE2 yellow channel bumped up blues somewhat, then "auto levels" and it just jumped out at me. I used the clone tool to clean up some bird poop and spots of fungus. I bit of dodge and burn tools in selected areas. Thank you again, your comments made my day! -=- Jerry -=-

Wonderful Image Jerry. The angel appears at the mercy of the barbaric sky behind it. Very powerful.
