Very nice...my only suggestion would be to level out the horizon. Other than that...lovely setting.

Thanks for suggestions. I straightened the horizon and then used PSE 8 "smart" brush to make NE sky appear ominous! Did it work?

Nice job, the sky certainly looks more saturated. Not sure if you did any other PP at all - I'm no expert whatsoever with PP, I get lost in my Photoshop! But I always just do the some very basic edits to my shots - straightening things (like you did here), cropping, as well as balancing tone, color and boosting contrast. You may find that just doing these last 3 things brings out colors etc for you so you wouldn't even need to do the smart brush edits.

Hope you enjoyed your trip to New England shores anyway! It is very beautiful up here, & I adore the ruggedness of the Maine coast especially. I was up that way yesterday, it's lovely in all 4 seasons, no matter what the weather!

Just a little south of me, nice picture! Nice job leveling, I think the sky looked fine in the first.
