Land and sky

This is the same photo as below with corrections made. First I used the healing brush tool to get rid of the telephone wire that is hanging in the un-corrected photo below. Next i adjusted the levels so 40 was the input and 5 was the output level. Then last step that I did was I moved the curves level output to 255, and the input to 223. i like this photo better because it shows more vivid colors, and that the wire was removed as well.....
Plus the lightness of the sky makes the picture a little spooky as well.

This picture was taken on October 10, 2010 on a winding road. I used auto scene without flash. This photo has not been corrected. I like this picture because it shows the beauty of  land that nature is still here..... even though people want to destroy its beauty.

This is the same photo as below with adjustments made. I first used the healing brush tool to remove the little strip of the white cloud because it did not look natural, Then i made the adjustments input level to 28 and I kept the output level at 0. The last step that I did would be to move the curves around by putting the input level at 31 and i kept the output level at 0.
out of these two sky photo's this one is my favorite because i like the color of the sky and tree tops better. 

This photo was taken in October of 2010. It was taken in my driveway. This is the sky shot that I love because it not only shows the sky, but the changing of the leaves too.
