Okay so this is for JohnT...no fridge...:) working on the from the top idea...if no photo shows up by tomorrow then you'll know I broke my leg...or neck..ha ha
Made a dup file & used calculations to create a luminosity mask composed of teh red & green channels. Put second file into lab color & used apply image using the calculations from other file, then ajusted opacity to taste. This was to darken the blue of the sky & lighten barn. Used adjustment layer curves to bump up saturation & neturalize barn. Used another adjustment layer curves to desaturate sky & darken some more.
I straightened the bottom line for a cleaner cut.
I removed the dots at the right corner close to your pink line.
I moved your signature under the photo. As a standard rule, always, put your text under your actual photo without exceeding the left or right sides.
Hope you will find these tips useful.
Cheers!
Robert
