Taken on my stormy day out. NO>>This is NOT a sky replacement. Open field in a quaint Alabama country side. Used 2 techniques provided by Nigel and JQ. Many thanks to them and others for posting tips in the Photoshop-Aholic thread.

Dramatic! The clouds look very, very scary, I would like to run in the house straight away. And whatever editing you have done, you've done it with skill. This is marvelous.

Nice shot. That sky sure looks stormy.....makes for a dynamic picture. But the sun is shining everywhere else. Mother Nature and her tricks, right? LOL.

You sure get some pretty trees in the fall in Bama Opie. Don't let Aunt Bea see this storm coming, it looks like a beaut.

Great post and postwork.

Um, ok, I think I'll just toss my Canon in the garbage now and be done with it! You have given all of us quite the mark to shoot for, this is a breathtaking shot. The composition is superb, the clarity remarkable and the contrast of the bright trees against the sorm clouds is superb.

~~I kinda like it in case you couldn't tell~~

Just had it in the VB and gave it the best score I've given anything in a while.
