VERY nice! I like the bottom one best and I love what happened with the sky; a boring sky became an elegant part of the image. Excellent! :paint

I like the second one, very nice and flowy

Also my fav, hence why I posted it last, haha. That Photoshop plugin "Zephyr" is what made the sky do that. Worked out well.

i like all especially for the lower part and , the last 2 for the sky

I found the effect on the far mountain a bit excessive, i would have preferred less intense and saturated colour, and a less sharp transition with the foreground ...or maybe a progressive fog or mist to soften the transition and the mountain colours

Thanks. I wasn't going for any kind of realism. You can always save the original photo above, and show me what you mean.

I really like the bottom one also.

I have never heard of the flaming pear zephyr plug-in.

Here's a link. There were several freeb's in one folder. You can find the download at the bottom of the page, "free plugins". Some worked in my 2.6, some didn't. I never tried any in my 2.8. The download contains 32, and 64 bit. http://www.flamingpear.com/download.html#freebies

Yep grabbed it already and tried out zombie. Very cool when you add some other touch ups.
