Bizarre Clouds

[Judy Howle]

Here's another one from the same day a few minutes later. The white streak is a contrail from a trainer jet. I used Perfect Effects and mixed that layer with the original and one using Topaz Adjust. This cloud formation really looked bizarre with the stark white of some of the clouds, with others being dark (but not that dark!) and the deep blue sky as rendered by my camera. I added a bit of warmth to the clouds.

I like the I like the Swoosh pattern and the chevrons.

Thanks Gary!

That's an amazing sky, and it sounds like you made it even more so with your processing. The contrast between the blue of the sky and the warmth you added to the clouds is a nice touch.

[Judy Howle]

Thanks Dennis. I think it looks better with the warmth than all the clouds just white.

Another gorgeous sky image, Judy. I haven't seen any impressive skies here in a long time:S3:

Thanks Cheryl! I haven't done much sky photography in ages till I happened to go into the front yard and saw all the interesting clouds and went to grab my camera.
