I pass this place on my way to work everday. Finally got around to snappin some shots yesterday after this NASTY storm passed thru my area...that huge puffy cloud there was the culprit...but an added bonus to this shot. I'm not at the point yet of doing any MAJOR post work to my pix...I messed around with the color/contrast in ACDsee, like I normally do...cropped ever so slighty. I did use PS's stamp tool to get rid of some annoyin stuff and create the border. That's about it! Tried to get an old postcard type of feel to this...hope I did it justice!!! Comments on this are appreciated as always! L8r!

I love that cloud...the landscape has a really dark sense of the oncoming storm...(or it might be the gamma on this monitor at work) whichever, this is a nice shot! :-)>

Neat shot. [I never seem to have my camera when the weather does cool things!] Effective image tone.

I like the shot, but suggest some work on the curves, or a contrast mask, to make the lower half of the image less dark. The thunderheads are awesome. I'd be pleased to play with this one myself, but I won't unless you say it's OK. Sue

Great clouds, I think it does have that postcard look too.
