Vern, i like it. I think we can all get to hung-up on highlight.

That's a great 'Dutch' sky; reminds me of the paintings of the dutch masters from the 16th & 17th century.

Dreamy and dramatic at the same time. Nice one!
Jack Hoying01-Dec-2008 04:04
Not only the sky, but the land is dramatic also. Nicely done!

Good HDR candidate!

Vern, a neat shot.

Beautiful shot, Vern. A tough exposure period, and with slide film you'd have needed to bracket to keep from blowing the highlights in the middle of the frame.
Guest 30-Nov-2008 23:57
Good photo Vern. It does show how the highlights get blown to nothing, slide was similar but not as bad!
Karen Hoyt30-Nov-2008 23:49
Wow, Vern what a wonderful shot. So peaceful. I love it.

Looks good to me, but then I did not see the original, as you did.
