Before and After

I took this photo a couple weeks ago. The sky was beautiful in some areas with big white fluffy clouds. But over this part of the lake there were some dark gray ones.
I was just sitting at the edge on the rocks snapping a few quick photos.


I added some more color and contrast in the edit and boosted up the blues. I also got rid of that yellow piece of something on the rocks.

Taken with Canon Rebel T1i, Tamron 17-50mm f/2.8 lens and edited in Lightroom 3.

Don't forget to visit Monica's blog at Pixel Perfect to see her edit and others.

  21. Seriously, how am I only getting here NOW on Sat! Ugh, I tell ya...sorry.

    Love the edit! The colors are beautiful.

    Too funny, as I started reading your description about sitting there just taking pictures of the stormy clouds, I thought you were going to say..."next thing I knew, a funnel cloud formed!"

    Ok, maybe it's better I just leave it at that...
