Awesome, very tangible drama here!

There are some strange looking clouds over the horizon, never seen anything like that!

[Myer Bornstein]

The storm was trying to form a water spout= a mini cyclone. the winf was swirling but the storm just did not have enough energy to form one

[subhrashis]

Wow!

[Michael Pancier]

very cool. if you have viveza II, I'd try to add some structure to bring out more detail in the clouds.

[David Thomasson]

Nicely composed! Lots of dramatic details in those clouds that could be brought out more. I used curves, S/H, and Topaz Detail
(all selectively applied). I think there's room to brighten without losing the dark, foreboding feel that makes this image special.

[Myer Bornstein]

Thanks all I tried Vieza 2

[Robert Amoruso]

Quite dramatic Myers. I like the composition and the leading line of the beach shoreline from FG to BG.

[Dave Mills]

Hi Myers, I agree, well composed with the road acting as a leading line. Lots of drama in the sky with a foreboding feel to the image. David's repost brought out alot of detail and allowed the viewer to see the water. Myer,good job on the sky in your repost but I like seeing detail in the water...

Hi Myer,
Dramatic clouds indeed! I think both repost brought out the sky drama nicely, I feel yours has the most depth there. I do like how David brought out the water and fg. I do think if you go with your sky version I would tone down the 2 brightest areas slighly....to more evenly balance the sky. With some additional tweaking this one will really shine.
