    Wow! that sun sure is fiery Sundar. Nice foreground to add something different. IMHO, it needs a lift to really enhance those reds/yellows in the clouds and to show off the beautiful palm tree in the foreground.
    I had a play in PS and it really brings it to life.

    Thanks. This keeps happening very frequently here. I wish this was on a beach or some other location. Please upload the edited image you have made.

    Cheers Sundar. Sometimes we take what we can get. It's a lovely photo. Here's what I meant, so I've posted the PS screen. I use Luminosity masks a fair bit to lift images. I have an action (free if you want) which creates them all (lights, mids and darks) and then I select the channel that targets the right parts to adjust and add it as a mask to a curves layer. If you had my action, I selected the Darks (5) channel. Using a Hue/Sat layer, I selected the reds and just dragged up the saturation to +45. I added the mask because the sun is already a good bright colour. The White overlay was just to throw some highlight onto the palm tree.

    Color really pops at you. Great job. Thanks Isac. I am not sophisticated in the PP but like to be better.
