Trying to use Photoshop to get better image quality. Comments/suggestions about image quality welcome.

Looks like you've found the landscape-over-saturation button, then. That red looks OTT to me, sorry.

Youve seriously f@cked that up

Actually I did very little tweaking to this apart from brightening it and using a bit of hue/contrast to avoid it being washed out from the brightening - it was very red on the camera image (which was taken on a too-dark setting).
The original (3.3 meg) is here: http://www.fiendy.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/IMG_1655_upload.jpg

You meant to post this here: www.shipphotos.co.uk/gallery, right?

Photo replaced with a slightly more muted version.

Still looks bollox

Thanks for that entirely useless comment. I don't suppose you actually looked at the link to the original photo?? It still looks pretty much exactly in-between what the camera took and what it actually looked like. I *could* change it into an entirely different image....if I wanted a futile exercise in not trying to capture the scene. Which I don't.

Yeah,yeah blah blah blah... but it still looks unnatural - the camera, unfortunately, does often lie, and that is certainly not what the actual scene looked like!

Original looks much better

The original looks redder and more saturated than this (and unrealistically dark). The true scene looked slightly less red. This image is a balance in-between.

This will teach me to waste my time asking for comments!! Bunch of arse!!
