OK, this photo didn't come up to expectations I had of a good silhouette type photo when I took it, so I thought I'd have some fun in photoshop with it

Original Photo:-




Version 1:-




And completely over the top version 2 (yes I know the sun isn't round!) :-




Please feel free to produce some weird and wonderful images

Good one Liquid It's amazing what you can do with Photoshop isn't it !
In my 2nd version I was going for a more Japanese style simplistic effect photo, I never even thought about creating a proper sky
