Looking up at the Sky on Friday

I was outside getting some shots of the kids last night after we put faces on our pumpkins and the sky had this beautiful orange glow to it. I couldn't resist snapping a photo of it. The photo above is the untouched version of the photo with the orange glow of the setting sun in the distance. I decided to play around with it a bit and here is what I came up with:
Which one do you prefer?
Do you like the original orange hue or perhaps the doctored "blue" skies?
How do your skies look today?

I love the second one... I think it had more drama.

Mine is posted here and here. Hope you could drop by, too! Happy weekends!

I like them both but think there is more dramatic lines in the 2nd one.

I love both but I think the Blue gives the pic more atmosphere

The original, with its orange glow in all its glory, pulls me in most.

I actually like the un-doctored picture! I like the colors!

I like the colors of the doctored photo just a touch more!

We have cloudy skies today but beautiful fall trees to look at!

I like them both. There is something soothing about each other but they are differently soothing. Does that make sense?

I prefer the original hue...nice bright orange like your pumpkin!

I'm going to have to start participating in this one of these days as many sky pictures as I have in my collection!

I like them both but I think I like the first one just a teeny bit more - it reminds me of the sunsets we had at the beach house in Matunuck.

I like the first one but I'm very much a photography traditionalist. A pumpkin orange sky fit right in with your evening events.

They are both so beautiful, but today I am in an orange mood I think because I am leaning towards the original.

Have a wonderful weekend.

They’re both lovely … but methinks I prefer the ‘original’ ... I’ve shared ‘pink clouds on blue skies’ (and a bit of haiku) at Sacred Ruminations ;--)
Hugs and blessings,

I can't decide - I love both :-)
Great skywatch, Tisha!
