      I love pushing the clouds up a bit to give it a bit of drama and interest. Very little rain though.

    #3 is spectacular Isac, but looks just a tad overdone. I like #2 with the leading lines of the road and fence.

      Thanks Alan. #3 clouds were really dark and threatening so I did a 5 shot bracket to see if HDR would give it some punch. I thought it did a pretty good job. It was the extreme contrasts that inspired the shot. There were white puffy clouds, some blue sky and dark stormy clouds all close together. Thanks for the CC.

      It's certainly dramatic. I think it's the bit of a halo around the palm leaves that gives it the processed look.

      I found it hard to see any halo Alan so you've got better eyes than me

    It might just be lighter areas of the clouds that I noticed Isac, but these are the areas I was referring to.

      Just the pen in Photoshop. I was in a bit of a hurry.

      Great that you're using a pen, I've had mine for a long time and it's just the bees knees. In Faststone there's a drawing section which does freehand, circles, oblongs and arrows also with a highlighter and of course text - so quick and easy. I use it for all my drawing needs when doing tutorials.

      Sorry, much as I’d like one I don’t have a pen. It was just the mouse and the pencil (not pen) tool in Photoshop - hence the shaky line. My fingers seem to be getting ahead of my brain.

    I use the UGEE M708 pen/tablet and it's brilliant. Cheaper than all the "Brand" names and as good. I've used Wacom Tablets and their prices are rediculous and no better performance than UGEE.
    To me, it's like Back Button Focus - once you try it you never go back. Have a look HERE

      Very tempting Isac. The price looks very reasonable.
