This is a shot I took in February and never really did anything with. I revisited it on the weekend armed with a few more months of experience with photoshop.
I processed the RAW file twice, once for shadow detail and once for highlights and sky colour. I then blended them in PS CS2. I tried to keep it looking natural so I haven't gone overboard...I just tried to do enough to render the scene as I saw it. I've deliberately kept it a little on the dark side for that reason. Any lighter and I started to lose the colour saturation of the sky. If I compensated for that, then it started to look over ps'd and unnatural. To me, this result is as close as I can get to how the scene looked to the naked eye as the sun rose behind the cliff face. http://tinyurl.com/y3ak86 As always, comments and critique welcomed.
