Steve,
Your re-work of this image is truly stunning. You have certainly improved your editing skills since I first saw this one. Those clouds look like soft puffs of cotton candy, they are practically floating off my screen. An incredibly sharp and inspiring image!

Great stuff!

I think I prefer the colored version with its faint tones of color in the clouds.. #9283774

Thanks a lot, Dave. Every few months I look back on what I thought was great then and I often wince. My editing skills are definitely improving and it is so nice to hear that you noticed. I spent at least a couple of hours on this new version. I wonder how I will feel about it in a few months. :)
