The Digital Darkroom

Post processing is the digital photographers dark room. Some photographers love it and others hate it. The two images here are the same shot that was captured using the RAW format of my Cannon 50D. Mother Nature supplied the yucky sky.
In my "Digital Darkroom" (PC with Adobe PS CS4) I opened the image in Adobe Camera Raw and post processed in camera raw using an "edgy technique". In one image I removed most of the saturation and the other I bumped the saturation way up to obtain the blue sky. Crop is slightly off in the two images but other than that eveything was done in Camera Raw with five mouse clicks resulting in two different images.
