final-blend of sag harbor sky and old city view

Description

I like this one a lot better than the Arizona Moon, , but there's still a long way to go. Blending is better here-I got an "artsy "look when I was doing the threshold, and I liked it, so kept it. I also like the effect of the "hard light" layer style.-made it even more "artsy", which I think you have to be with a weird combination like a Sag Harbor sunset and an image of the Old City.I liked the effect of the sharpening here;I also like the color balance-I brought out a lot of red. I think there's still too much black on the right and the sun should be lower-next time I might crop the black out-I tried moving the sun down at the beginning, but didn't know how to do it,( I didn't know how to move just the sun to the right) so I just left it where it was. Also-the sun is reflected on the wrong side of the dome, but I couldn't get dodging to work on the dome-maybe because I had already sharpened.
