Hi Lorant.

What a wonderful sky..! but I do think you could up the contrast a little more on both the clouds and the ground especially and masking is dead easy on this... I have taken the liberty of playing around with your image, (hope you don't mind..) I used an exposure layer on the ground and a levels layer on the sky in the repost... Might have gone a bit far with the ground.. I would do it all with a bit more care in ACR if I had the RAW file however..

Hi Don. Thanks a lot for your comment and the re-work. I do like the result of the sky, but the contrast on the ground part is too strong IMO. But for sure it is an improvement and a great idea. Thanks a lot.

Don nailed my thoughts when I first open the image that it needed a touch of contrast.

I am jealous of that sky and agree with everything said above!

Don's repost is exactly what I was thinking too...I love the low lying puffy clouds above the landscape.

This is a lovely view with great layers and lots to look at.
I can see it working a strong contrast monochrome as well?
