Very very very little done, more or else straight from the camera. It was a 25 sec ond shot at f3.5

Roen

Cool, thanks.

lol, I'm not either, but it was worth getting out of bed at 6am to get such a beautiful dawn. The clouds even lined up nicely to hide the power lines that cross the river.

Nice shots - Is that honestly a natural sky ?
Having said that i got a natural weird red sky last stormy Wednesday night, thought there was something wrong with my camera !

Nothing like putting doubt into your own question LOL

And to answer your question, all I did was to add saturation. The cloud was quite low then so the colour was there from the lights from Galway.

I took about 10 shots that morning with different levels of cloud cover and pollution but to me this one really kicks ass.

its certainly got the Wexford colours -- very nice !!
