OK, I took the pic back into Photoshop and lightened it up. Then I had to re-adjust the contrast. I'm still not too happy with the results. Guess I'll be spending some time tweaking my system.
Excellent!...i like that one!...its like as a explosion bomb!!! Good work! Thanks for your coments regarding "SUN DOWN" ...and for NEATIMAGE. - I prefer used the original shot then computer programs ajustments. But i know...somethimes wee need that. Tanks for your attention. Apreciate so much!
A little more info about this picture. This is actually a second generation print, a picture of the original picture. The negative was lost years ago somewhere in my travels with the US Navy and the many times I had to move. Then the original picture was damaged, so I had my niece who was in a photography class at the time, make a reprint. Next, I'm finding out that my current scanner just isn't up to the job of making good, clear prints. The glass is cloudy. I have tried cleaning both sides of the glass, but to no avail. Well, that's what you get when you buy a $99.00 scanner (even if it is a Microtek). Hmmm, maybe I can steal the glass out of my old HP scanner from my Macintosh system......
