    Stupid question time!

    Thanks for the wise words guys! I've always been a believer that you should ask if you don't know, no matter how stupid a question you think it is... I asked and now i know! :D (and i didn't get called a pillock)

    Hey all, I'm looking for some advice on how i can enhance certain areas/details in Lightroom v3.5. I'm happy with the overall look and composition of the below picture but the sky, as pointed out by another member, is lacking in detail and looks a bit watery. Any tips on how i can bring...

    New kid!

    Thanks for the welcome :) I appreciate that everyone has their own different tastes and subjects they prefer to shoot, so that's all good! After all.. variety is the spice of life. I only use Lightroom to edit my pics, but i guess i could do something with the skies in there? Any tips on how...
