Shoot & Edit: Week 3 - Edited Sunset

This week's theme for Shoot & Edit is "Good night".  And I posted this SOOC picture on Monday ...

A gorgeous sunset is most appreciated around here.  Especially in the winter months when we are just happy to have seen the sun.  Even for just a few minutes.  :)

I appreciate all of your kind comments on my photo.  Most of them telling me I didn't need to do any editing.  But since this is Shoot & Edit, I edited anyway.  :)  But not much.

My edited version ...
sunset week 3 edited*
Again, I used Adobe Raw in PSE6 for my editing (LOVE IT!).  All I did was increase the blacks very slightly, bump up the clarity and vibrance a bunch, and increase the saturation slightly.  Can you see a difference?  It is not drastic by any means but I'm happy with it.


Thanks for stopping by!  I can't wait to see everyone's edits!




Happy Thursday!
