I don't like the bad reflections in the sky. Why didn't you take them out?
Get rid of those reflections and I like the shot.

Now, see... I loved the reflections in the sky!!

[MicWayWal]

Well, now that I look at it closer, I don't think they are reflections in the sky. I think it is some kind of PP masking. Notice the vignetting in the upper and lower corners. Either way I think it is a distraction not a addition to the image.

Hi Michael,
I am posting the ooc shot, with the final shot. The reflection was there. I personally thought it was neat. :-) I'd never seen anything like that, so it was my favorite.
Anyhoo...

OOC-Selected in Lightroom. No changes in exposure or color


The final image with colors boosted, and lightness painted in:


As you can see, there weren't any big changes. Hope this helps!

I feel the same. Love it with the natural sky. I keep seeing a big 727 jet coming at me. Either way, it's a nice image....just prefer one over the other.

I didn't take too many (yay rain!) but here's one of my faves I have it in color as well but I liked the B&W conversion.
