Cloudy Base

Uploaded: January 16, 2008

Description

7:30 am outside in Santa Rosa California. Took a picture of the low lying clouds in a sunny area. Our valley was filled with rivers of clouds. I love it when the clouds are low lying and the trees pop out over them. I took this picture from my back deck.

Exif: F Number: 5.6, Exposure Bias Value: 0.00, ExposureTime: 1/250 seconds, Flash: fired, auto mode, red-eye reduction mode, ISO: 400, FocalLength: 141.00 mm, Model: Canon EOS 30D

What a glorious view! I, too, love it when the clouds lay in the valleys. This is lovely. I really like the composition, especially the way the clouds draw the eye from right to left. #5348863

Hi Tammy,Susan,Bob,and Peaches! I take it you all like it? LOL! Actually Bob, I didn't play around to much with the contrast on this one. I did sharpen it and played with the hue and saturation. The contrast seemed to make the corner edges at the top a little more darker than they already were. I'm glad you all like it. #5356172
