Sorry for my absence it has been to long since I participated on here hopefully I can find time to take and share some images. I was able to get out and meet a friend for a morning shoot at the House of Refuge on Hutchinson Island in Stuart Florida. At the time I thought the morning was a bust as we had no color and no strong lightning strikes from this magnificent thunder head that was off shore. In fact I left the SD card in the camera for days before I finally pulled it out and downloaded the images. Much to my surprise I started to see some frames I liked of the foreground water and rocks and that I had managed to capture the thunder head with some nice glow from internal lightning. I picked the best foreground image and blended it with the best thunder head image and as I worked on the file the image just came together nicely. So here it is hope you enjoy it.
Canon 6D, 16- 35mm at 16mm, two images hand blended then my usual workflow of luminosity mask and tonal adjustments.
