Keeper ???
Posted by Mark Hudon on March 28, 2007 at 9:24 PM
I'd crop about half the darkest part of the cloud out from the top (see that one layer that's darker than the rest?, half of that layer) and then I'd sharpen it a bit more and call it a keeper. This ain't bad at all IMHO.

Pradeep, great mood and light. I'll second Mark's suggetions.

Cool lighting and clouds.. I'd even dodge the foreground some for a bit more detail....

I too would like to see more detail in the foreground. I would also crop it from the top. Too bas there wasn't a Tornado in that cloud. :eek:

I would crop the top area and dodge the foreground a bit to bring out some more detail.

With those two things done, this also screams for B&W conversion to me.
