The 100th post! Wooo!!!
It calls for something special, so how about some red-hot lava on Hawaii?
A great photo, but I did replace the sky here. The original composition just seemed static to me, with the lava and the sky each taking one half of the photo. I wanted something that would draw your eye in, so I found some clouds that emphasized the perspective. They are also red, so they work well with the lava. I even put some heat-haze over them near the horizon - it's there in the original photo - though that's barely noticable. And I sharpened the lava in the lower right corner - it was blurry there (possibly due to the aforementioned heat-haze, but it didn't come across as such). The guy got the boot.
