Before the Storm
Rainy sidestreet near the Frans Hals museum in Haarlem, the Netherlands. The original (boring, ugly, and white) sky has been replaced with looming storm clouds photographed at Louis XIV's Château de Versailles a few days later. Both photos taken April 2012.

  I found a little dark spot on one of the roofs that needed fixing - an artifact of me trying to figure out how to replace the sky nicely.

Bob and Chris - thanks for your comments.

  Wonderful mood in this narrow old street.
The sky and the wet surface make it a winner.
Congratulations on your three finalists, Terry and good luck.
