Re-edit. Used Topaz twice - once set at Spicify, then a second time at Simplify. Not sure how I feel about the result, but it's different!

My original edit is here:

This is awesome! It looks like something that would have been seen in the miniature challenge. I really feel like I can reach out and touch the stuff in the foreground. It's cool!

I love it! It has a dreamy quality to it, not quite real.

This is so great! The detail in the buildings is amazing.

Looks neat. Love that solid red disk that the sun makes. Is that a C-5 I see hiding behind a tree? Worked on those for a couple of years at Rhein-Main.

I think I like this image the best of the three. There is more detail in the buildings and the Sun really pops! The blue tint is interesting.

I started playing with Topaz today. I rarely do landscapes though. It really livened this up. THAT SUN!!! wowza

It's and interesting experiment. I think they are both good for their own purpose. The titles are apt. The original edit, Iraqi Sunset, is very dramatic and beautifully sharp. It is definitely about the sunset. This one is eerie and definitely about the airport. Esthetically, and to hang on my wall, I would prefer Iraqi Sunset.

It occurs to me that a whole series of these different interpretations
could make an exciting presentation.
