Default Messing around in Photoshop

I had a shot of a beautiful sunset with a very uninteresting foreground, taken earlier this year in Arizona. Someone in the HDR forum mentioned Fractalius and then I saw an advert for Flaming Pear's Flood plug-in....

The first shot is the original image.I copied the image, rotated it vertically, repositioned it and went to work with Fractalius and Flood in duplicate layers, then added Topaz Clean to the water.

It would have been nice to see the water in the original too.

Apparently there wasn't any water in the original, hence the "very uninteresting foreground."

The photoshopped version is a stunner, though!

Thank you everyone, I had so much fun with it that I reworked a few old photos that I was disappointed in before. If I get some free time over the next week or so I'll try and post them.
