I wanted to change the composition of this photo so cropped off the left side and I extended the right side to give more space behind the horse. I replaced the sky and used Topaz Clean to give the final image a smooth look.

  Amazing results, filling the frame with the horses, changing the sky,and Topaz turned this ordinary capture into extraordinary and a winner! Nice work Irene!

  So much more powerful Irene! The frame full of horses like Millieanne said and the strong sky behind the larger silhouetted horses! Great presentation!

  Your changes definitely improved the final outcome. How did you get the additional clouds in there with the blue sky? The colors pop & make for a much better silhouette!

  WOW, what incredible editting, while keeping it real. Thank you so much for showing the before pic. You illustrated to me that if the focus, compostion and lighting are there, look again and see the possibilities. CONGRATULATIONS!
