    Default Clouds Over Torres del Paine, Chile

    I have had this picture since 2008. I have never really gotten an edit that I liked, so I went from quite reserved to all out wild. Used frac and then some filters from NIK CEP. Might have over done it, but I do like the drama

    I love it! Not overdone to me. I like the frac effects and the way it brings out all the layers in the mountain, clouds and foreground. Very cool!

    Hi, Jackie, I love it!! I think fractalius and the Nik were a perfect combination. I love the dramatic feel that it creates

    Very nice! Looks like sizzling static electricity just before a huge lightning bolt.

    I like it, Jackie! I love the interplay of the lights and darks, and the texture you achieved. All the little swirls remind me of Van Gogh's "Starry Night."

    Jackie, I like the results of the filters you've used. A very nice composition. Looks very off world if you know what I mean..

    Very nice use of the filters, Jackie! It looks like an electrical storm in Patagonia after a meteor strike. Well done.

    It is fun to go overboard at times! But this image is pure drama. I think it works well.

    Jackie, I almost missed this one but I'm glad I didn't! I love the sense of energy and drama that the filters bring to the image. This scene reminds me of the fact that lightning goes both ways, leaping from the ground to the sky as well as the other way round. Very nicely done.
