Gold Lining


 
BetterPhoto.com Photo Contest FinalistBetterPhoto.com Photo of the Day   Gold Lining
Gold Lining
Scanned in the sky from a slide from over 20 years ago, shot from my balcony while overseas. I used a real orange filter for the color.

The barn and foreground are within walking distance of my home.
All storms have a silver lining. In this case, it's an orange lining.

Resubmitted in Digital Darkroom

I tried multiple uploads; the BP process is adding the little rectangle artifacts at the top right of the picture. C'est la vie.
