Colorful things that Photoshop can do

Here's another example of the incredible things that even the cheaper version of Photoshop can do. It's called PS Elements now, I have the old version, called PS LE 5 (Limited Edition).
This is a sunset photo I took in April of last year. I played around with contrast using the levels and curves controls, and also with the saturation.
First, here is the original picture I took, which wasn't a very pretty picture:

Now, here is the image after I got through playing around with it. Admittedly, it's a little wild, but it made a nice, bright screensaver image for my computer during the winter!!!

Good job Annie. Looks like a greeting card or promo pic for AK. Text would go nicely in the dark area on the bottom left.
