Thank you very much. This was a late afternoon shot from the bus. I had to clone out the florescent lights of th ebus (which you can still see traces of). I also used a software filter simulation to add some warm tone.

The one I like is by Tom Paxton.

You may find Nancy Whiskey on this link, not sure about Tom Paxton though. All files are genuine recordings, mp3, wav, wma etc - go here

Don,
The grainy sky ends abrupty and there are a couple of smudge marks. Are those the cloning parts you are speaking of? Otherwise I like the icy blue cast of the picture. Once again, enhances the cold feeling of the moment.
