Wow, Meg that is an amazing shot. Did you use a filter of any kind to get the sky so blue? Great job! #436542

OMG This is so cool! I really like the way you can see the rain falling in the right of the photo and the clear skies in the left. This is so Great!!! #2707196

Thanks for your comments. The only filter I used was a UV haze, I was very lucky- it just sort of went like that and I dropped everything and RAN for my camera. WB was on auto, I adjusted it in Capture to approximate the day- then I did the pic again as a JPEG and used auto contrast- result nearly identical interestingly enough. This is very much what it looked like- it was a wierd day... #2707261

Stunning! The clouds and the blue are so attractive. Great contrast in light and color! Aren't these unexpected moments wonderful when you can capture them and they turn out so well! #2708171
