Iowa Sunrise Processed

And here’s the processed version. I cropped it a little bit and intensified the colors. I brought out the contrasts in the clouds a little more and deepened the landscape to give it more of a complete silhouette. I also took the trouble to brush out the power lines because, well, I hate power lines. What do you think?

  1. This one wins because the back lighting is more pronounced. I would have kept the power lines. Not that I like them either. To me they weren’t a distraction. Nice work on the clouds.

    • One of the great mysteries to me as a photographer is seeing how much more vibrant colors get when you dial down the exposure. The red and orange saturation was nudged up a couple of notches, but mostly I just fiddled with the darks and shadows.
