I snapped these shots from the car late one afternoon. Frank had stopped for traffic so I didn't have time for multiple shots.
You may notice that the foreground is a bit lighter and brighter than it usually appears in photos I've taken so late in the day. That's because I've been taking more images in "Raw" format because I'm taking a Photoshop course from LFCC and we've been learning the features of "Camera Raw" in Photoshop. I used that plug-in to process these images and it made it easy to lighten the shadows without lightening the sky. There's a danger of overdoing it so I tried not to over-lighten. I've seen all too many images lately which showed more color in the shadows than humans can see with the naked eye.
This is my Skywatch post for this week.
