Default Dramatic sky over ashland high

I've been experimenting with different techniques on photoshop, and I found this looks pretty cool. In fact it's probably going on the cover of my school's newspaper





thanks for looking!!

I love it - fantastic, it deserved to get published.

Great, GREAT work with the lighting of the foreground. Love the moody sky and the colours in the trees.

Damn the architect that gave you a brown box for your mid-ground

Well done, essdog! The sky is gorgeous, and excellent contrast with the bush in the front. Thanks for sharing.
