(Main) photography->manipulation
A quite spectacular sky from a year or two back. The manipulation was giving the clouds an ending on either side as the original shot cut the cloud off about two thirds of the way thru. If you look for the signs you'll find them but they are subtle enough not to grab the attention of most casual viewers. Given the scale of the manipulation that was as much as I could hope for.
Enjoy.
Mikel.

The end result is a very wild visual. Amazing colors and details in those clouds. As well as the vastness of the open land below them. As Roger stated, would be a wild backdrop for a unearthly vehicle. Saved to look at those colors more.

The visual of this amazing cloud is just amazing. The color tones are just perfect. Mother nature gave you a beautiful scene.

Impressive Mikel, It really caught my eye. I like that it's not really mirror image, it confuses you into thinking that it's not a manip. Well done!

The difference between a bad artist and a good one is: the bad artist seems to copy a great deal; the good one really does. ~William Blake
Just seen this in the voting booth and having read the commentary you are right. I saw next to no evidence of manipulation and took it at face value as an amazing shot :) Manipulation or not it is beautiful!

Yes, I did find them and they are very subtle. It was a bit confusing because I could see mirrored spots but not everywhere I would naturally find them with a split-and-flop. Your post cleared it up for me. That's one amazing sky. High marks just now in the voting booth.

The clouds look alive. Just had it in the VB. Wonderful post.

Cameras are like people--sometimes they lose focus.
Whoa! I missed this amazing shot! That is really something. Great capture, Mikel!

LYTRO. The new light field photography. Refocus your shots AFTER you have taken them. Just click on the word LYTRO. See a VIDEO HERE.
What a spectacular posting!! Thank you for the explanation in your narrative about the trim job on the clouds. I'm very impressed with the seamless editing. I can see some mirror imaging, but other than that I have no idea how you accomplished this feat. The shot is reminiscent of scenes from some sci-fi films like Independence Day. I fully expect to see a massive space ship emerge from this cloud. I love the juxtaposition of the fiery colors from the sunset and the subdued blues in the sky behind the cloud. The image is finalized with a nice slice of Mother Earth to show the enormity and vastness of the area. It's a joy to view your work.
