Thank You All!
These shots were taken with the chosen pre programed ” Landscape” which Canon already has a blue bias to and I notched up the contrast and saturation also. Shot at low speed of 100 to keep the “Noise” down and traded off depth of field as a result. Even the pre sun rise sky in the desert here is brite enough to get hand held shots but it takes practice. Thats all before I took one shot. Processing involves contrast, brite/dark balancing, saturation adjust and hue control,cropping ,spot removal etc etc, So the picture you see is a few steps removed from reality, as all pictures are. Clouds offer the opportunity to see the world differently from the stereotypical and mundane.The shots are almost overhead shots,straight up thru the clouds , everyone. There is perhaps a 15 minute window as the reds and oranges sweep through the clouds westerward, much like a sunset in reverse.
Please do contribute Keelin and any others. Yes the most difficult part of these shots is getting out of bed.. But witnessing a different cloud presentation is worth it.
Same roof different morning;
