Corrections by Blending

Original became underexposed by the brightness of the brass.

Background duplicated to a new layer and Blending Mode of Screen applied.   Opacity of 75% returned the most pleasing balance with the sky.

Sorta bland, soooo blend to fix the bland!

Better, added layer set blending to Screen at 42% opacity followed by another layer with blending set to Linear Light, opacity 100%.

An architect classmate told me that art museums should be white on the interior.   I can assure you that this will test your abilities in photography.	Adjustments: Duplicate Background Blending: Screen 50% With Magic Wand, select the structure and Ctrl+J.   Blending: Lighten 100%.   Enhance > Adjust Color > Replace Color adding slight green.

Same Place, later time.

The solar screen is in the process of opening.

Cloudy, rainy day, nothing but white clouds.   Using Color Varations: Highlights checked, More Blue 4 times.   Followed by Shadows checked, Darken.
