Took this when I was working in the city. Used multiple layers to create the effects. One layer for the cars used a motion blur. Used the unsharp mask to get greater detail and a multiply mask to really bring out the sky. Seems as though the sky is going to open up and take everything with it.

  Hi Shaw love this picture. The building is great and the effects fantastic.

Did you use a tripod? How were you positioned to take it?

Thank you!! This shot was handheld. I don't really ever use a tripod. Keep it in the car just in case but I like to be flexible and quick to change with the action. I was on the side walk on the other side of the street, with the way the streets were layed out was able to get a good angle.
